This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to inspect and prepare the erection site, erect structures and applies to structures that are exclusively/predominantly steel metal and are load-bearing of substantial size made out of steel and/or other metals.

Specifications for the structure would be supplied via engineering drawings or the like and would include site location information.

Where workshop assembly techniques are required see unit MEM05011 Assemble fabricated components.

Where design skills are required see unit MEM09011 Apply basic engineering design concepts.

Where lifting or rigging skills are required see appropriate units.

Where welds are required to meet legislative or regulating requirements then see appropriate welding units.

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

Band: A

Unit Weight: 4

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

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assingnment, checklist) and due date here

Assessment task 1: [title]      Due date:

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

This field allows for different 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.
Levels include the following:	straightforward levelling and alignment using plumb bob/lines and levels
Appropriate authority includes one (1) or more of the following:	site supervisor building inspector contractor
Materials/components include one (1) or more of the following:	ferrous and non-ferrous materials of a: variety of material sizes variety of borne loads variety of joining systems variety of component profiles
Prepared includes one (1) or more of the following:	cleaning assembly sequencing surface finishing
Structures include one (1) or more of the following:	metal frameworks portals stairways walkways vessels tanks platforms conveyors moving lines associated railings
Reports and documentation include one (1) or more of the following:	contract documents building inspection documentation compliance reports

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.
