This competency was developed for combat arms personnel required to construct and maintain a range of field structures, such as bunkers, strongpoints, towers and shelters in a deployed operational environment but is applicable to any individual in this field of work.
The individual will usually work as part of a team under supervision, but may undertake some autonomous tasks, use discretion and judgement, and take responsibility for the quality of their outputs.
All activities are carried out in accordance with relevant organisational policies and procedures.
This unit covers the competency required to construct and maintain a range of field structures, such as bunkers, strongpoints, towers and shelters.
Construction is usually of a temporary nature and is undertaken employing expedient construction methods using both commercially available and improvised materials. Construction will normally be carried out in a field environment.
