This unit is appropriate for those working in an operational role at worksites within:

Civil construction

This unit specifies the outcomes required to safely record delivery information for concrete delivered to concrete pavements.

The unit includes the conduct of planning, preparing, receiving, tipping, discharging, recording and cleaning up during concrete delivery operations. Licensing, legislative, regulatory and certification requirements that apply to this unit can vary between states, territories and industry sectors. Relevant information must be sourced prior to application of the unit

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

Prerequisites

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.

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

The evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit must be relevant to worksite operations and satisfy all of the requirements of the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge and the range statement of this unit and include evidence of the following:

knowledge of the requirements, procedures and instructions for the receipt, checking and recording of concrete deliveries

implementation of requirements, procedures and techniques for the safe, effective and efficient concrete deliveries

working with others to check concrete deliveries meet all of the required outcomes

consistent timely receipt, checking and recording of concrete deliveries that safely, effectively and efficiently meets the required outcomes

conduct recording of concrete deliveries ensure::

an even feed of concrete into the paver

accurate recording/mapping of delivery location and additional information as required by site procedures

accurate recording and calculation of Rate of Evaporation

accurate check of concrete for compliance both from docket information and visual inspection

provide safe directions to delivery trucks

unloading on uneven surfaces or surfaces with grades is safely carried out

provide input and implementation of preparation of a VMP for the worksite

Context of and specific resources for assessment

This unit must be assessed in the context of the work environment. Where personal safety or environmental damage are limiting factors, assessment may occur in a simulated environment provided it is realistic and sufficiently rigorous to cover all aspects of workplace performance, including task skills, task management skills, contingency management skills and job role environment skills.

Assessment of this competency requires typical resources normally used in a Civil Construction. Selection and use of resources for particular worksites may differ due to the site circumstances.

The assessment environment should not disadvantage the participant. For example, language, literacy and numeracy demands of assessment should not be greater than those required on the job.

Customisation of assessment and delivery environment to sensitively accommodate cultural diversity.

Aboriginal people and other people from a non English speaking background may have second language issues.

Where applicable, physical resources should include equipment modified for people with disabilities. Access must be provided to appropriate learning and/or assessment support when required

Method of assessment

This unit may be assessed in a holistic way with other units of competency. The assessment strategy for this unit must verify required knowledge and skill and practical application using more than one of the following assessment methods:

written and/or oral assessment of the candidate’s required knowledge

observed, documented and/or first hand testimonial evidence of the candidate’s:

implementation of appropriate requirement, procedures and techniques for the safe, effective and efficient achievement of required outcomes

consistent achievement of required outcomes

first hand testimonial evidence of the candidate’s:

working with others to undertake and complete the receipt, checking and delivery of concrete.
