Unit of competency
Modification History
Release 2 |
This version first released with CPC Construction, Plumbing and Services Training Package Release 5.1. Weight corrected in Performance Evidence. Formatting corrected in the Knowledge Evidence. |
Release 1 |
This version first released with CPC Construction, Plumbing and Services Training Package Release 5.0. Supersedes and is equivalent to CPCCBC4022A Supervise tilt-up work. Prior to final endorsement of this unit of competency, the Construction IRC changed the weight in the Performance Evidence of the in-situ tilt slab from at least 10 tonnes to at least 6 tonnes. This change occurred to provide more flexible assessment conditions to suit industry. |
Application
This unit of competency specifies the skills and knowledge required to organise, coordinate and supervise tilt-up work on a construction site. It includes the application of safe work practices during the erection and temporary bracing of tilt-up pre-cast concrete panels.
This unit of competency applies to site supervisors and builders who have a sound understanding of licensing and competency requirements for crane operation, dogging and rigging and are responsible for planning, organising and supervising tilt-up work on a construction site.
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.
No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
