This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to perform flux core arc welding (FCAW) on heavy or light metal fabrications.

Weld quality would conform to AS 1554 General Purpose and American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) or equivalent.

Where the interpretation of technical drawings is required unit MEM09002 Interpret technical drawing should also be selected.

Where thermal processes, hand and/or power tools are required the appropriate specialisation units should also be selected.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

Band: A

Unit Weight: 4

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

(add new lines for each of the 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.

This field allows for different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included.
Welds include the following:	fillet and butt welds carried out in all positions
Materials include one (1) or more of the following:	carbon steel stainless steel
Preparation includes one (1) or more of the following:	pre-heating setting up of jigs fixtures and clamps
Consumables include one (1) or more of the following:	gas or gasless wire a range of gases
Distortion prevention measures include one (1) or more of the following:	pre-heating setting up of jigs fixtures and clamps
Rectify includes the use of one (1) or more of the following:	oxy acetylene air arc equipment grinding devices

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
