Unit of Competency | PMC554090B - Undertake simple refractory design |
---|---|---|---|
Description | This unit of competency covers applying design principles and undertaking simple design tasks. The technical requirements of the design are paramount and the application of an understanding of refractories, heat transfer and refractory wear and failure mechanisms are primary. The aesthetics of the design are of little if any significance. | ||
Employability Skills | This unit contains employability skills. | ||
Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit of competency applies to technicians who are responsible for designing simple or small refractory installations or repairs. They apply the principles of heat transfer, thermal expansion, abrasion and structures along with a knowledge of refractory materials and installation techniques to the design to yield a product which will meet a rigid technical specification.This unit covers a refractory design for a situation which can be achieved by the application of standard products/components in a standard manner. It does not cover innovative products/ applications nor those situations where the design must be done by a registered engineer, although it may involve working with an engineer on a designThis will typically be done by an individual technician working in liaison with customers, installers and technical experts. | ||
Duration and Setting | X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting. |
