Formats and tools
- Unit Description
- Reconstruct the unit from the xml and display it as an HTML page.
- Assessment Tool
- an assessor resource that builds a framework for writing an assessment tool
- Assessment Template
- generate a spreadsheet for marking this unit in a classroom environment. Put student names in the top row and check them off as they demonstrate competenece for each of the unit's elements and performance criteria.
- Assessment Matrix
- a slightly different format than the assessment template. A spreadsheet with unit names, elements and performance criteria in separate columns. Put assessment names in column headings to track which performance criteria each one covers. Good for ensuring that you've covered every one of the performance criteria with your assessment instrument (all assessement tools together).
- Wiki Markup
- mark up the unit in a wiki markup codes, ready to copy and paste into a wiki page. The output will work in most wikis but is designed to work particularly well as a Wikiversity learning project.
- Evidence Guide
- create an evidence guide for workplace assessment and RPL applicants
- Competency Mapping Template
- Unit of Competency Mapping – Information for Teachers/Assessors – Information for Learners. A template for developing assessments for a unit, which will help you to create valid, fair and reliable assessments for the unit, ready to give to trainers and students
- Observation Checklist
- create an observation checklist for workplace assessment and RPL applicants. This is similar to the evidence guide above, but a little shorter and friendlier on your printer. You will also need to create a seperate Assessor Marking Guide for guidelines on gathering evidence and a list of key points for each activity observed using the unit's range statement, required skills and evidence required (see the unit's html page for details)
- Self Assessment Survey
- A form for students to assess thier current skill levels against each of the unit's performance criteria. Cut and paste into a web document or print and distribute in hard copy.
- Moodle Outcomes
- Create a csv file of the unit's performance criteria to import into a moodle course as outcomes, ready to associate with each of your assignments. Here's a quick 'how to' for importing these into moodle 2.x
- Registered Training Organisations
- Trying to find someone to train or assess you? This link lists all the RTOs that are currently registered to deliver FWPTMM5209, 'Determine prefabricated timber building systems designs for compliance, manufacture and installation'.
- Google Links
- links to google searches, with filtering in place to maximise the usefulness of the returned results
- Books
- Reference books for 'Determine prefabricated timber building systems designs for compliance, manufacture and installation' on fishpond.com.au. This online store has a huge range of books, pretty reasonable prices, free delivery in Australia *and* they give a small commission to ntisthis.com for every purchase, so go nuts :)
Elements and Performance Criteria
Elements | Performance Criteria |
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Interact with supply chain stakeholders to design prefabricated timber building systems | 1.1 Communicate with the developer during the design process to ensure that prefabricated timber building system is fully fit for purpose and meets client functional requirements 1.2 Use Building Information Modelling (BIM) system or similar and conduct further collaborative analysis with the fabricator, builder, component suppliers and regulators to achieve a design configuration that allows for lean processes during all stages of timber building system life cycle, meets regulations and does not complicate other design considerations 1.3 Ensure that the design accounts for fabrication capabilities 1.4 Implement a continuous improvement process during the design life of prefabricated timber building system to report, record and resolve issues |
2. Determine design solutions and specifications for structural compliance | 2.1 Identify the National Construction Code (NCC) Performance Requirements for structural robustness, which the prefabricated timber building system and its components need to satisfy 2.2 Discuss structural design actions with appropriate stakeholders to ensure that the prefabricated timber building system meets the minimum NCC structural requirements and performs without risks when used as intended through its design life 2.3 Obtain experimental and observational data for the strength of materials, structural components, connections or assemblies to determine design values, and consult with appropriate engineers to indicate the actual robustness and reliability of the physical building system 2.4 Contribute to the design verification for structural compliance and process documentation according to the NCC, standards and codes to facilitate design certification and approvals 2.5 Determine durability requirements for the materials of prefabricated timber building system according to the nominated design life and planned maintenance, and ensure that they are specified in design documentation for prefabricators |
3. Determine design solutions and specifications for safety compliance | 3.1 Determine early in the design process hazards to health and safety during all stages of prefabricated timber building system life cycle according to the workplace health and safety laws, regulations and the NCC 3.2 Determine and apply health and safety design control measures according to standards, codes and technical guides to eliminate or minimise health and safety risks during all stages of prefabricated timber building system life cycle 3.3 Verify design documentation and ensure that health and safety provisions are specified for all stages of prefabricated timber building system life cycle according to standards, codes and technical guides 3.4 Verify design documentation and ensure that detailed maintenance provisions are specified for all components of the prefabricated timber building system being designed according to its intended functions |
4. Determine design solutions and specifications for services | 4.1 Identify the NCC Performance Requirements for fire resistance and acoustic and thermal properties, which the prefabricated timber building system and its components need to satisfy 4.2 Verify design documentation and ensure that intended materials, separations, insulations, fire warnings and fire-fighting management systems are specified for the required fire, acoustic, thermal and waterproofing performance according to standards, codes and technical guides 4.3 Use design control actions to mitigate any possible effects of transportation, handling, on-site installation or maintenance on the integrity of intended connections, insulations or materials 4.4 Determine early in the design phase where points of entry are required in the prefabricated timber building system, components and materials for services installation 4.5 Verify design documentation and ensure that installation and connections provisions are specified for each service according to standards, codes and technical guides 4.6 Ensure that all tolerances for the prefabricated timber building system and its components are specified in the design specifications according to standards to facilitate off-site manufacture and on-site installation 4.7 Verify and ensure that approval and compliance certification for installation of services, partitions and floor elements are performed to the appropriate standards for thermal, acoustic and fire performance and according to local requirements before on-site installation |
5. Determine design solutions and specifications for transportation and on-site installation | 5.1 Determine maximum dimensions and weight for the building system being designed to meet restrictions provided by vehicles, lifting plants, road configuration around the construction site and local regulations 5.2 Ensure that lifting requirements are specified for all stages of the prefabricated timber building system life cycle in the design documentation, and they are according to the NCC to facilitate and maintain prefabricated timber building system integrity and adequate performance 5.3 Determine the effects of cargo restraints and exposure to acceleration forces on the strength (structural attributes) of prefabricated timber building system during transportation, and use design control actions to allow for the forces applied 5.4 Verify the design and ensure that necessary restraint conditions during transport and residual risks to the prefabricated timber building systems resulting from transportation are specified 5.5 Ensure that the sequence for the installation of prefabricated timber building systems and components is specified in design documentation |
