Diagram for USCG Deck Safety: In illustration D033DG below, what is the joint indicated by letter D?
A seam
B butt
C span
D sheet line
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) butt. A butt joint is a type of joint where two pieces of material are joined together at their ends, resulting in a perpendicular connection. In the illustration D033DG, the joint indicated by the letter D represents a butt joint, where two pieces of material meet at their ends. The other answer choices are incorrect because: - A seam is a line where two pieces of material are sewn or otherwise joined together, which is not the case in this illustration. - A span refers to the distance between two supports, which is not the relevant feature in this diagram. - A sheet line is the edge or outline of a sheet of material, which is also not the joint indicated by the letter D in this illustration.
