Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Prepare for the task
   • Work health and safety (WHS) requirements, including personal protection needs, are observed throughout the work
   • Purpose and operational characteristics of object to be drawn are identified
   • Production materials and methods are identified
2. Establish design requirements and limitations
   • Type of drawing to be completed is identified
   • Design concept requirements are established and documented identifying dimensions, angles, shapes and finished size
   • Drawing conventions and specifications to be noted on the drawing are identified
   • Appropriate medium for drawings is identified and selected
3. Quantify and draft initial drawing
   • Dimensions are plotted from prototype sketch and documented specifications
   • Dimensional points are connected to match appropriate drawing view
   • Any production notes or special requirements are noted
   • Drawing conventions and specifications are noted on the documentation
4. Complete drawing
   • Angles, shapes and dimensions are checked against specifications and concept prototype drawing
   • Adjustments are made to the drawing within scope of authority
   • Drawing is checked for compliance with workplace documentation requirements
