Issue Date: May 2024
This unit is applicable to a farriery environment where the welding requirements are not required to meet the Australian Standard 1554 General Purpose. The materials used are generally low carbon and mild steels.
In addition to legal and ethical responsibilities, all units of competency in the ACM10 Animal Care and Management Training Package have the requirement for animals to be handled gently and calmly. The individual is required to exhibit appropriate care for animals so that stress and discomfort is minimised.
This unit of competency covers the processes of identifying welding requirements from instructions, preparing the materials and carrying out routine welding using a forge.
This unit forms part of the requirements of the trade qualification for farriery.
