Range Statement

The Range Statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the Performance Criteria, is detailed below. Add any essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment depending on the work situation, needs if the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts.

Legislative/regulatory requirements

All work must comply with relevant Federal and State or Territory legislative or regulatory requirements.

Identification methods may include:

Identification means identifying fabrics according to physical properties and features and other characteristics determined by clients or markets. Methods of identification include:

checking of specifications and manuals

consultation with specialists

Fibres may include:

natural fibres such as cotton, wool, silk, linen

man-made such as rayon and acetate

synthetic such as nylon and polyester

Fabrics may include:

Fabrics include natural and synthetic single yarn fabrics and blends and can include:

knitted fabrics including weft knits and warp knits

woven fabrics including plain, twill, satin, dobby, jacquard and pile

non-woven fabrics such as felts, nets, braids, bonded and composite

emerging smart fabrics

Performance characteristics may include:

Performance testing

Performance tests for this unit are those where the test procedure has already been determined and the acceptable range of outcomes is established. Tests may include:

Quality indicators include:
