Repair adhesive bonded structural damage on vehicles

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


This unit describes the performance outcomes required to repair bonded vehicle body panels and structures using an adhesive attachment method. It involves preparing for the task, selecting and using specialist tools and equipment, removing bonded structural damage, repairing panel sections, applying approved adhesives and realigning the structural repair, and completing workplace processes and documentation.

It applies to those working in the automotive body repair industry.

No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

Before competency can be determined, individuals must demonstrate they can perform the following according to the standard defined in this unit’s elements, performance criteria, range of conditions and foundation skills:

remove and replace bonded panels on two different vehicles, in which the work must include two of the following:

door skins

vehicle turret

quarter panel

boot floor section

use the following bonding methods and securing techniques during above work:

welding and bonding

rivet or screwing and bonding.

Individuals must be able to demonstrate knowledge of:

work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to repairing adhesive bonded structural damage on vehicles, including procedures for:

selecting and using personal protective equipment (PPE)

using safety data sheets (SDS) for adhesives

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.

Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.

Assessment must include direct observation of tasks.

Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to vehicle structural damage that they have repaired using adhesive bonding, e.g. repair orders.

Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.

The following resources must be made available:

automotive repair workplace or simulated workplace

workplace instructions

OEM or authorised agency repair procedures

PPE required to remove and replace adhesive bonded panels and structures

SDS for adhesives

vehicle specifications

two different vehicles or frames with bonded panels requiring repair

adhesives

cleaning agents and materials

tools, equipment and materials appropriate for repairing adhesive bonded panels.
