TOGAF 9 Combined Part 1 and Part 2 — Question 109

Which of the following statements about TOGAF Building Blocks is true?

Answer options

• A. A good Building Block should not be composed of other Building Blocks
• B. Architecture Building Blocks should be first selected in Phase D
• C. Building Block specifications should be loosely coupled to implementation
• D. Custom developments are known as Architecture Building Blocks

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because Building Block specifications are intended to be flexible and not tightly integrated with specific implementations, allowing for easier adaptation. Option A is incorrect as a good Building Block can indeed be composed of other Building Blocks, and Option B is wrong because Architecture Building Blocks are typically defined earlier in the architecture development cycle. Option D is misleading as custom developments may not always fit the definition of Architecture Building Blocks.
