Unit of competency

Modification History

Release 1. Changes to code, application, elements, performance criteria, assessment requirements. Foundation skills added. Range of conditions removed. Assessment requirements changed.

Application

This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to produce and assemble manufactured board components using angled and curved construction methods. Products may be custom-made or mass-manufactured and could include curved counters, desks, seating, cabinetry and end panels.

Workers with this competency follow established procedures using discretion, judgement and problem solving to determine construction methods based on design documentation provided to them.

No licensing or certification requirements exist at the time of publication. Relevant legislation, industry standards and codes of practice within Australia must be applied.

Competency Field

Cabinetry and furniture

Elements and Performance Criteria

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.
