Demolish shopfronts and bulkheads

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: March 2024


This unit of competency specifies the outcomes required to demolish sections of existing shop buildings and dispose of demolished materials and waste. It covers completing the required demolition work to schedule, following specific plans and specifications, and working safely with others as a member of a team.

The unit supports shopfitters who demolish old shop building components in order to make alterations, extensions and additions to the shop. Work may be completed on site concurrently with other shopfitting work and must be scheduled to accommodate both client requirements, where the shop is operational, and the requirements of other shopfitters and associated contractors.

This demolition work is limited to non-load-bearing shop building structures, including:

external walls and cladding

suspended ceiling structures

shopfronts and glazed sections

joinery and fixtures

high level bulkheads.

Licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit of competency in some States. Relevant state and territory regulatory authorities should be consulted to confirm those requirements.

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