Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Identify and confirm the work requirement
   • Objective of the analysis and evaluation is determined from workplace instructions
   • Specifications for light marine hull performance and stability system are sourced and interpreted
   • System faults, deficiencies or discrepancies are identified and confirmed
   • Hazards associated with the work are identified and risks are managed according to workplace procedures and safety requirements
2. Prepare for analysis and evaluation
   • Evaluation criteria are developed or adopted to meet the objective of the analysis and evaluation
   • Analytical and evaluative methodology is developed or identified from technical information
   • Testing equipment is prepared according to manufacturer specifications and workplace procedures
