Produce construction detail drawings

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: April 2024


This unit of competency specifies the outcomes required to produce construction detail drawings and specifications for all types of residential, commercial and industrial buildings as defined by the Building Code of Australia (BCA). Construction detail drawings will provide construction contractors with information required to select, cost and apply construction materials and methods according to the client’s design brief and relevant development approvals.

It also covers the production of drawings where variations are required during the construction process.

The unit supports drafters who assist and work under the instruction and supervision of an architect or building designer to produce drawings relied upon throughout the various construction phases of a building development.

Licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to building design drafting 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)


Evidence Required

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. Where bold italicised text is used, further information is detailed in the range of conditions.

1.

Gather and interpret project information.

1.1.

Current documentation and project information are reviewed to identify components of drawings requiring construction detail and scope of detail drawings required.

Design methodology for areas and elements of the building to be drawn in detail are confirmed in consultation with architect or building designer.

2.4.

Specific requirements for construction detail drawings are confirmed based on marked-up drawings received from architect or building designer.

3.

Create initial construction views and details.

3.1.

Existing library of objects is reviewed and relevant objects are imported and manipulated where appropriate for the production of construction detail drawings.

3.2.

Views of building elements are created according to requirements for the production of construction detail drawings.

3.3.

Callouts are used or created as necessary to show required detail in plans.

3.4.

Initial detail construction drawings and specifications are produced and submitted to the architect or building designer for feedback.

4.

Modify and update detail drawings.

4.1.

Modifications to construction detail drawings are undertaken in response to architect or building designer feedback and instructions.

4.2.

Final construction detail drawings are provided to client and construction practitioners as directed and in an approved format.

4.3.

Approved variations to drawings received during construction are actioned and revised drawings are submitted to architect or building designer for sign-off.

5.

Finalise construction detail drawing.

5.1.

Design personnel are consulted to ensure iterations of the construction detail drawings adhere to project design brief.

5.2.

Builder and other construction personnel are consulted where necessary to confirm construction methodologies and to inform finalisation of construction detail drawings.

5.3.

External consultant’s documentation and expertise are sought as directed to ensure accuracy of drawings.

5.4.

Relevant approval authorities are consulted as required to undertake final cross-checking and confirmation of approval conditions and to resolve unforeseen conflicts.

This section specifies work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below.

Documentation must include:

building plans and permits, including:

approval conditions

comments and notations on drawings

services related approvals

2-D and 3-D digital design drawings and models.

Elements of the building must include one or more of:

architraves

balustrades

box gutters

ceiling finishes

connections between floor and wall and wall and ceiling

doors, including trims

flashings

kitchen or bathroom interior, including wall finishes, fixtures, fittings

parapets

vermin proofing

wall design

windows, including trims and rebates.

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
