This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to mark and cut out sheets for composite use.

The marking out/cutting out of sheets used for composites can be significantly different to the marking out/cutting out of other materials, including metals. Sheets used in composite fabrication often have significant directionality which must be considered and as a result of this composite design often includes different physical properties in one direction to another and so sheets must be marked and cut to align the required directional properties of the product with those of the sheets used in the fabrication.

Where the selection and use of hand tools is required unit MEM18001 Use hand tools should also be selected.

Where the selection and use of power tools is required unit MEM18002 Use power tools/hand held operations should also be selected.

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

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

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assingnment, checklist) and due date here

Assessment task 1: [title]      Due date:

(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.
Sheets include one (1) or more of the following:	reinforcing: woven non-woven pre-impregnated (pre-preg) cores timber, including medium density fibreboard (MDF) and plywood filler material
Requirements of sheet material includes the following:	strength flexibility/rigidity thickness density directionality drape operating temperature
Regular rectilinear shapes include one (1) or more of the following:	rectangular prisms cubes portions of prisms and cubes similar shapes
Regular curved shapes include one (1) or more of the following:	cylinders spheres segments of cylinders and spheres similar shapes
Transition pieces include one (1) or more of the following:	cones pyramids portions of cones and pyramids square to round tee piece lobster back similar shapes
Complex 3-D shapes include the following:	other 3-D shapes which may need to be fabricated and which may be composed of a number of components of the above shapes
Alignment includes the following:	warp weft selvedge other features of the sheet the nesting of lay flats to optimise the use of materials and minimise waste
Typical problems include one (1) or more of the following:	identifying directionality in sheet identify a feature to provide alignment products requiring multidirectional properties

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.
