Unit of Competency | MSATCS502A - Detail structural steel members |
---|---|---|---|
Description | This unit covers the skills and knowledge required to detail structural steel members in steel framed constructions. These members can include beams, girders, columns, trusses, rafters, rakers, tie beams and temporary and permanent braces. | ||
Employability Skills | This unit contains employability skills. | ||
Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit applies to a structural steel detailer who has to detail structural steel members used in steel constructions. These members can include beams, girders, columns, trusses and braces. Only the most common structural members are considered in this unit. However, the detailing principles and skills covered in this unit can usually be applied to any non standard members specified by designers. In this unit the term beam is interchangeable with the term girder and only 'beam' or 'beams' are used.The unit may apply to structural steel detailing carried out for residential, commercial, industrial or mining fabrication and construction projects. The detailing may be done manually or by using CAD and/or proprietary steel detailing software. The unit assumes that knowledge of basic technical drawing conventions and procedures such as view, dimensioning, drawing layout, etc. is already held. Work is conducted according to defined procedures.Work may be conducted in small to large scale enterprises and may involve individual and team activities.This unit requires the application of skills associated with planning and organising to complete structural steel detail drawings. Communication and numeracy skills are used to refer to patterns and specifications and complete and label sketches. Self management skills are used to ensure conformance of own work to quality standards. | ||
