In Beat the GMAt flash card, it is mentioned that avoid

Preposition + noun + participle construct. Could someone confirm whether we can consider this criteria for elimination and give some examples.

Thanks.

Yes, this construction is almost always wrong on GMAT.

Example -

INCORRECT: The MNC organization built a huge office building with canteen facilities included for office workers. (with - preposition; canteen - noun; included - participle).

CORRECT: The MNC organization built a huge office building that included canteen facilities for office workers.

Does it have some resemblance to this ? (This assumes preposition "To" only though)

"A NOUN TO VERB" is CORRECT ONLY when Noun is ABSTRACT.
Examples:
"A way to produce goods"
"A reason to try harder"

"A substance to promote X" --> WRONG! "Substance" is a concrete noun.
"A substance that promotes X" --> CORRECT!

"A tool to install the shelves" --> WRONG! "Tool" is a concrete noun.
"A tool with which to install the shelves" --> CORRECT!
