Elements and Performance Criteria

ELEMENT 

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA 

1. Dimensions of finished patterns or templates are determined

1.1. Customer orders are interpreted to determine required dimensions of finished products

1.2. Size requirements are checked in relation to the production process and finishing capacity of the workplace

2. Plan process

2.1. Material for pattern or template is identified for approximate size and characteristics

2.2. Required instruments and equipment are identified, located and assembled

2.3. Drawings and related specifications are interpreted

2.4. Procedures for using pattern development instruments and tooling are confirmed and equipment is prepared for use

3. Plot dimensions

3.1. Equipment and tooling are used following normal workplace procedures

3.2. Each dimension is measured, exploded and plotted maintaining angles, arcs and curves

3.3. Visual inspection and measurements are used to compare pattern dimensions and shapes with drawings and specifications

4. Complete pattern or template

4.1. Pattern or template is completed ensuring that the pattern indicates completion date and original drawing details.

4.2. Required workplace approval of pattern or template is obtained

4.3. Plans are marked with notations for workplace requirements, including authorship, process or customer requirements, authorisation and review dates

4.4. Plans are copied and filed according to workplace policies and procedures

Required Skills and Knowledge

REQUIRED SKILLS AND KNOWLEDGE 

This section describes the skills and knowledge required for this unit.

Required skills 

  • research and interpretive skills to locate, interpret and apply pattern and template production procedures
  • technical literacy and communication skills sufficient to interpret and apply common industry terminology, and interpret materials required for the production of patterns and templates
  • English literacy and communication skills in relation to dealing with others involved in the work
  • questioning and active listening skills, for example when obtaining information of technical quality working practices and pattern and template production procedures
  • apply planning and organising skills to own work activities, including making good use of time and resources, sorting out priorities and monitoring one's own performance
  • interact effectively with other persons both on a one-to-one basis and in groups, including understanding and responding to the needs of a customer and working effectively as a member of a team to achieve a shared goal
  • establish safe and effective work processes which anticipate and/or resolve problems and downtime, to systematically develop solutions to avoid or minimise reworking and avoid wastage
  • use mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly calculate time, assess tolerances, apply accurate measurements, calculate material requirements and establish quality checks
  • use workplace technology related to the production of patterns and templates, including the use of measuring equipment and communication devices and the reporting/ documenting of results

Required knowledge 

A working knowledge of:

  • WHS regulations/requirements, equipment, material and personal safety requirements
  • common automotive terminology and vehicle safety requirements
  • theory for production of patterns or templates
  • pattern and template production techniques and procedures
  • preparing drawings and presenting information
  • site reporting procedures
  • work organisation and planning processes
  • enterprise quality processes

Evidence Guide

EVIDENCE GUIDE 

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Overview of assessment 

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit 

It is essential that competence in this unit signifies ability to transfer competence to changing circumstances and to respond to unusual circumstances in the critical aspects of:

  • observing safety procedures and requirements
  • communicating effectively with others involved in or affected by the work
  • selecting methods and techniques appropriate to the circumstances
  • completing preparatory activity in a systematic manner
  • determining dimensions of finished patterns or templates
  • planning processes for producing patterns or templates
  • plotting dimensions
  • completing a range of patterns or template in accordance with enterprise procedures
  • completing post-activity housekeeping

Context of , and specific resources for assessment 

Application of competence is to be assessed in the workplace or simulated worksite

Assessment is to occur using standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints

Assessment is to comply with regulatory requirements, including Australian Standards

The following resources should be made available:

  • workplace location or simulated workplace
  • material relevant to the production of patterns and templates
  • equipment, hand and power tooling appropriate to the production of patterns and templates
  • activities covering mandatory task requirements
  • specifications and work instructions

Method of assessment 

Assessment must satisfy the endorsed assessment guidelines of the automotive industry's RS&R Training Package

Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance together with application of underpinning knowledge

Assessment must be by direct observation of tasks, with questioning on underpinning knowledge and it must also reinforce the integration of key competencies

Assessment may be applied under project related conditions and require evidence of process

Assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competence is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances

It is preferable that assessment reflects a process rather than an event and occurs over a period of time to cover varying quality circumstances. Evidence of performance may be provided by customers, team leaders/members or other persons subject to agreed authentication arrangements

Competence in this unit may be assessed in conjunction with other functional units which together form part of the holistic work role

Guidance information for assessment
