Which term refers to a door constructed with interior spacers separating face panels rather than solid material?

• A. Hollow-core door
• B. Glue-Laminated Beam
• C. Means of Egress
• D. Masonry

Answer: (A)

A hollow-core door is built with interior spacers or a lattice between thin face panels, creating hollow spaces inside the door rather than a solid block. This design makes the door lighter, cheaper, and common for interior use, but it doesn’t offer the same strength, fire resistance, or sound isolation as solid-core doors. The other terms don’t describe door construction: a glue-laminated beam is a structural member, means of egress refers to exit routes, and masonry is brick/stone construction material.
