LMFKB3005A Fabricate cabinets for the built-in environment
Assessment tool
Version 1.0 Issue Date: May 2024
This unit applies to work conducted in a manufacturing workshop environment.
Processes may include use of computer numerical control (CNC) and static machines. Where these processes are applied, relevant Furnishing Training Package units should be selected. Materials include particleboard, fibre board and solid timber.
This unit covers the skills and knowledge required to plan production processes and construct and assemble components to fabricate cabinets that meet predetermined specifications. It includes use of materials and processes typically applied within a cabinet manufacturing environment.
You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)
Employability Skills
This unit contains employability skills.
Evidence Required
List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.
Overview of assessment
Assessment processes and techniques must be culturally appropriate and appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy capacity of the candidate and the work being performed
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit
Interpret and apply information from plans and drawings
Identify and apply materials and components used in cabinets for kitchens, bathrooms and other residential settings
Use construction techniques to fabricate cabinets
Assemble cabinet components
Assess quality outcomes
Use hand and power tools safely and efficiently
Context of and specific resources for assessment
The application of competency is to be assessed in the workplace or realistically simulated workplace
Assessment is to occur under standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints
Assessment of essential underpinning knowledge, other than confirmatory questions, will usually be conducted in an off-site context
Assessment is to comply with relevant regulatory or Australian Standards requirements
The following resources should be made available:
workplace location or simulated workplace
tools and equipment required for constructing and assembling cabinets
plans, drawings and manuals relating to work
Method of assessment
Assessment must satisfy the endorsed assessment guidelines of the Furnishing Industry Training Package
Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts) together with application of underpinning knowledge
Assessment methods must be by direct observation of tasks and include questioning on underpinning knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application
Assessment may be applied under project related conditions (real or simulated) and require evidence of process
Assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competency is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances
Assessment may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency

Assessment Tasks
Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.
