Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: April 2024


This unit covers work performed in workplaces involving on-site and off-site fabrication, installation and/or replacement of glass to residential windows, doors and other openings, or to other frames. Work is generally performed individually or in a team environment and requires individuals to demonstrate discretion, judgement and problem solving in the handling and installation of glass products.

This unit of competency covers the skills and knowledge required to fit glass to residential windows and doors.

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.

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Overview of assessment

Assessment processes and techniques must be culturally appropriate and appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy capacity of the candidate and the work being performed.

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

Assessors must be satisfied that the candidate can competently and consistently:

interpret work order/job instruction and locate and apply relevant information to glaze/re-glaze simple/complex windows and doors

apply safe handling requirements for equipment, products and materials, including use of personal protective equipment

follow work instructions, operating procedures and inspection practices to:

minimise the risk of injury to self and others

prevent damage to goods, equipment and products

maintain required production output and product quality

glaze or re-glaze the following:

timber putty faced window sashes or door panel

timber beaded sidelight, fixed panel, sliding, hinged, pivot and/or bi-fold doors

metal framed channel glazed door or window

metal framed beaded door or window

include the following for each:

calculate glazing clearance and cutting size

cut glass to AS/NZS 4667:2000 Quality requirements for cut-to-size and processed glass

select glazing tools, equipment, glazing sealants, vinyls and tapes

prepare working area

prepare glazing rebates and channels prior to installation

clean glass, tools, equipment and work area

calculate the cost of glass, glazing materials and labour

select re-glazing tools and equipment

hack out/remove beads and glass safely from timber windows and doors

remove and disassemble metal window sashes and doors and remove glass safely

install and/or adjust sash cords, unique, spiral or spring balances on double hung windows

work effectively with others.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

The application of competency is to be assessed in the workplace or realistically simulated workplace.

Assessment is to occur under standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints.

Assessment of essential underpinning knowledge, other than confirmatory questions, will usually be conducted in an off-site context.

Assessment is to comply with relevant regulatory or Australian Standard requirements.

The following resources should be made available:

frames

glass

fixing material

sealants

workplace operating procedures and work orders

personal protective equipment

an appropriate work area/site.

Method of assessment

Assessment must satisfy the endorsed Assessment Guidelines of the LMF02 Furnishing Industry Training Package.

Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance together with application of underpinning knowledge.

Assessment methods must be by direct observation of tasks and include questioning on underpinning knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.

Assessment may be applied under project-related conditions (real or simulated) and require evidence of process.

Assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competency is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances.

Assessment may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency.
