CSCS Demolition Test

CSCS Demolition Mock Test 

The CSCS Demolition Mock Test is for those aiming to get a CSCS Blue or Gold Advanced Craft Card. You need to pass the CITB Health, Safety, and Environment test for any CSCS Card application. This test, often just called the CSCS test, qualifies you for the card. There are three types of CITB Tests, and which one you should take depends on your goal. For instance, if you want a CSCS Green Card, you'll need to pass the CITB HS&E Test for Operatives or the CSCS Test for Operatives.

Another type of the CSCS test is for specialists. This demolition mock test helps you practise questions from one of the core knowledge areas of the CSCS test. The other areas cover:

1. Working environment
2. Occupational health
3. Safety
4. High-risk activities
5. Specialist Activities

When you book the CSCS Test for Specialists, you can choose demolition as one of the specialist activities. If you want to take the full CSCS test covering all the core parts, you should try this mock exam instead. Additionally, you can also download a handbook with 400 questions and answers, similar to the actual test, if you're planning to take the CITB Health, Safety, and Environment Test for Operatives or Specialists.

How Much Does the Test Cost? 

The CITB Health, Safety and Environment Test for Specialists costs £23.50 – you can also have us book the CITB test on your behalf for a minimal fee. 

How to Get a CSCS Blue/Gold (Advanced Craft) Card? 

To apply for a CSCS Card, you'll need to pass an NVQ related to your field and the CITB Health, Safety, and Environment test.

For a CSCS Blue Card, you should pass the Level 2 NVQ in your chosen role, like roofing or plumbing. Make sure you're already employed, as most NVQs require workplace assessment. You'll also need to complete practical assignments. Here are some NVQs that qualify you for the CSCS Blue Card:

NVQ Level 2 Diploma in Plastering
Level 2 NVQ Diploma in Roofing Occupations (Construction)
Level 2 Diploma in Decorative Finishing and Industrial Paint
Level 2 NVQ Certificate in Wall and Floor Tiling

Similarly, for a CSCS Gold Advanced Craft Card, you'll need to pass an NVQ Level 3 or higher and the CITB Health, Safety, and Environment Test for Specialists. These courses can qualify you for the card:

Level 3 NVQ Certificate in Wall and Floor Tiling
NVQ Level 3 Diploma in Roofing Occupations
Level 3 NVQ Diploma in Plastering
