Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

CPCCCO3041 - Place concrete

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Plan and prepare to place concrete.

  1. Review and clarify task to place concrete.
  2. Assess work site to determine scope of work.
  3. Review task specifications and check to make sure they are in accordance with legislation, regulations and codes of practice.
  4. Review work health and safety (WHS) requirements for the task in accordance with safety plans and policies.
  5. Identify safety signage and barricade requirements.
  6. Review environmental requirements for the task in accordance with environmental plans and legislative requirements.
  7. Select plant, tools and equipment, check for serviceability and rectify or report any faults.
  8. Calculate material quantity requirements, including the volume of concrete.
  9. Estimate the time required for concrete pour based on size of area to be concreted, volume of concrete required and level of complexity of concrete pour.

Prepare location for concrete placement.

  1. Erect identified safety signage and barricades to maintain a safe working area around pour location and fit personal protective equipment (PPE).
  2. Determine location for concrete placement from task specifications.
  3. Discuss implications for concrete placement near existing structures with relevant personnel and define separation or connection requirements.
  4. Check that location for placement is free of debris and waste.
  5. Ensure site access is clear.

Place concrete.

  1. Place concrete in horizontal layers into location in accordance with indicated levels.
  2. Ensure vertical drop of concrete is less than two metres to avoid segregation of concrete materials.
  3. Consolidate poured concrete during process using approved compaction or vibration method.
  4. Carry out measurements and calculations throughout the pour to ensure sufficient concrete is delivered to fill required area, and place orders for any shortfall as required.
  5. Check finished levels against datum using levelling device, and rectify incorrect levels.
  6. Screed concrete to required levels and grades.
Place concrete in horizontal layers into location in accordance with indicated levels.
