Elements and Performance Criteria
Elements Elements describe the essential outcomes. |
Performance Criteria Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. Where bold and italicised text is used, further information is detailed in the range of conditions section. |
1. Prepare for work |
1.1 Workplace instructions are used to determine job requirements 1.2 Hazards are recognised and precautions are taken according to safety requirements 1.3 Engineering drawings are sourced that relate to the vehicle or equipment being repaired, manufactured or modified 1.4 Engineering drawings are checked to ensure they are current and include latest amendments |
2. Read and interpret engineering drawings |
2.1 Symbols, codes, legends and diagrams in engineering drawings are identified and interpreted 2.2 Technical information, material specifications, finishes, dimensions and tolerances are identified and interpreted 2.3 Product, system and components represented by the drawing are identified and interpreted |
3. Apply information from engineering drawings |
3.1 Information from vehicle and equipment engineering drawings is applied to assist in the fabrication, modification and repair of vehicle and equipment systems and components 3.2 Specific customer and work task requirements are identified as required 3.3 Manufacturing processes are identified from drawings, and materials are selected according to customer requirements and workplace procedures |
