Overview

This unit of competency specifies the skills and knowledge required to prepare sketches and drawings used for communicating ideas to clients and other parties. It includes capturing design concepts and options taken from architectural drawings to create simpler versions.
The unit of competency applies to builders, experienced tradespersons, project managers and estimators who prepare sketches and drawings for estimating, explaining details and showing measurements required for building and construction work.
It does not describe more complex drafting skills.
This unit of competency is suitable for those using specialised knowledge to complete routine and non-routine tasks and using their own judgement to deal with predictable and sometimes unpredictable problems.Completion of the general construction induction training program specified by the model Code of Practice for Construction Work is required for any person who is to carry out construction work. Achievement of CPCCWHS1001Prepare to work safely in the construction industry meets this requirement.

Assessment

For Melbourne campuses

Assessment tasks will be designed to reinforce & extend knowledge and skill competence within set & controlled parameters in accordance with each unit’s learning outcomes & performance criteria requirements, including the setting of work based practical application tasks designed to provide evidence of competence outcomes, within periodic and scheduled timelines.

Students will be expected to demonstrate the following required skills:
