4.2

Adjustments are made to the drawing within scope of authority

4.3

Drawing is checked for compliance with workplace documentation requirements

Foundation Skills

Foundation skills essential to performance are explicit in the performance criteria of this unit of competency. Detail on appropriate performance levels for each furnishing unit of competency in reading, writing, oral communication and numeracy utilising the Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF) are provided in the Furnishing Training Package Implementation Guide.

Range of Conditions

Specifies different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included. Range is restricted to essential operating conditions and any other variables essential to the work environment.

  • work is carried out in accordance with legislative obligations, environmental legislation, relevant health regulations, manual handling procedures and organisation insurance requirements
  • work requires individuals to demonstrate discretion, judgement and problem solving
  • work is performed with little external assistance and with minimal supervision or direction
  • drawing is to be undertaken in accordance with established industry and/or enterprise practices and procedures
  • customers may be internal or external

Drawings include: 

  • manual and computer-aided processes and two and three-dimensional

Tools and equipment include: 

  • drafting table
  • drawing aids
  • computing equipment and workstation
  • special lighting conditions

Materials include: 

  • drawing
  • computing consumables

Personal protective equipment includes: 

  • that prescribed under legislation, regulations and enterprise policies and practices

Information and procedures include: 

  • work procedures/instructions
  • designer's concept and specifications/instructions
  • legislation/regulations/codes relevant to the work undertaken
  • furniture design principles and criteria, including ergonomic requirements

Assessment requirements

Modification History

Release 1 - New unit of competency

Performance Evidence

  • Interpret work order and locate and apply relevant information
  • Identify materials used in the work process
  • Interpret specifications and measurements in two and three-dimensional form
  • Satisfy ergonomic criteria during the drawing process
  • Present relevant information within the production drawing using both manual and computer-aided processes and techniques
  • Use mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly complete measurements, calculate area and estimate material requirements
  • Communicate ideas and information to enable confirmation of work requirements and specifications, interpret basic plans and follow safety procedures
  • Avoid backtracking, work flow interruptions or wastage

Knowledge Evidence

  • Manual and computer-aided drawing processes and techniques
  • Ergonomic principles for furniture design and manufacture
  • Presentation standards
  • Enterprise or equivalent operating procedures, including procedures for preparing drawings and presenting information
  • Relevant regulatory requirements, recognised standards and codes, and industry practices

Assessment Conditions

  • Assessors must:
  • hold training and assessment competencies as determined by the National Skills Standards Council (NSSC) or its successors
  • have vocational competency in the furnishing industry at least to the level being assessed with broad industry knowledge and experience, usually combined with a relevant industry qualification
  • be familiar with the current skills and knowledge used and have relevant, current experience in the furnishing industry.
  • Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time rather than a single assessment event and in a range of workplace relevant contexts.
  • Assessment must be by observation of relevant tasks with questioning on underpinning knowledge and, where applicable, multimedia evidence, supervisor’s reports, projects and work samples.
  • Assessment is to be conducted on single units of competency or in conjunction with other related units of competency. Foundation skills are integral to competent performance in the unit and should not be assessed separately.
  • Assessment must occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant process, equipment, materials, work instructions and deadlines.
  • Access is required to design concept, specifications, dimensions and drawing equipment.
