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.
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1 | Identify object to be drawn | 1.1 | The purposes and any operational characteristics of object to be drawn are identified |
| | 1.2 | Production materials and method are identified |
2 | Establish drawing criteria and limitations | 2.1 | Type of drawing to be completed is identified |
| | 2.2 | Drawing requirements are established and documented identifying dimensions, angles, shapes and finished sizes |
| | 2.3 | Drawing conventions and specifications to be noted on the drawing are identified |
| | 2.4 | Appropriate medium for drawings is identified and selected |
3 | Quantify and draft initial drawing | 3.1 | Dimensions are plotted from criteria and documented specifications |
| | 3.2 | Dimensional points are connected to match appropriate drawing views |
| | 3.3 | Any production notes or special requirements are noted |
| | 3.4 | Drawing conventions and specifications are noted on the documentation |
4 | Complete drawing | 4.1 | Angles, shapes and dimensions are checked against specifications and sample |
| | 4.2 | Adjustments are made to the drawing within scope of authority |
| | 4.3 | Drawing is checked for compliance with workplace documentation requirements |
Identify the factors and criteria relevant to the drawings
Apply safety requirements throughout the work sequence, including the use of personal protective clothing and equipment
Prepare production drawings of furniture/furnishings:
covering a scope of at least three (3) products
applying both manual and computer-aided techniques and processes
Communicate ideas and information to enable confirmation of work requirements and specifications and the reporting of work outcomes and problems, interpret basic plans and follow safety procedures
Minimise wastage of resources, including materials, time and money
Work with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to optimise work flow and productivity
Furniture design and planning criteria
Structural geometry
Measurement techniques and equipment/tools
Theory and practice of calculations (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division)
Types, techniques and processes of manual production drawing
Types of computer-aided drawing equipment, software, techniques and processes
Conventional signs and markings for drawings
Assessors must:
hold training and assessment competencies as determined by the National Skills Standards Council (NSSC) or its successors
have vocational competency in the furnishing industry at least to the level being assessed with broad industry knowledge and experience, usually combined with a relevant industry qualification
be familiar with the current skills and knowledge used and have relevant, current experience in the furnishing industry.
Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time rather than a single assessment event and in a range of workplace relevant contexts.
Assessment must be by observation of relevant tasks with questioning on underpinning knowledge and, where applicable, multimedia evidence, supervisor’s reports, projects and work samples.
Assessment is to be conducted on single units of competency or in conjunction with other related units of competency. Foundation skills are integral to competent performance in the unit and should not be assessed separately.
Assessment must occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant process, equipment, materials, work instructions and deadlines.
Access is required to information on the subjects for drawing, computer-aided drawing systems, measuring, calculating and recording devices.
