Question 1849 Deck Safety

The correct answer is C) ceiling. The wooden deck installed on top of the plating lettered N in illustration D033DG is known as the ceiling. The ceiling refers to the interior lining or sheathing that covers the underside of the deck above. It provides a smooth, finished surface and helps insulate the space below. The other options are incorrect because: A) furring refers to thin strips of wood used to create a space between the ceiling and the deck above, B) spar decking is a specific type of decking used on sailing vessels, and D) flooring typically refers to the finished surface that is walked on, not the sheathing underneath.
