Modification History

Release 2

This version first released with CPC Construction, Plumbing and Services Training Package Release 5.1.

Equivalency changed to non-equivalent.

Release 1

This version first released with CPC Construction, Plumbing and Services Training Package Release 5.0.

Supersedes and is equivalent to CPCCCA2003 Erect and dismantle formwork for footings and slabs on the ground. Updated to reflect current industry terminology, tools and equipment.

Application

This unit of competency specifies the skills and knowledge required to erect and dismantle formwork for slabs on ground, rebates to slabs on ground, and steps to strip footings, meeting all relevant requirements of the National Construction Code (NCC), Australian Standards, work health and safety (WHS), and Commonwealth and state or territory legislation.

The unit includes:

  • establishing required levels on site and constructing formwork using boxing materials, including timber, metal, masonry, fibre cement sheeting or reconstituted timber products, and fixings to contain wet poured concrete until it is completely cured
  • stripping the formwork and preparing and storing it for re-use.

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.
