7) This relates to the unit of competency as a whole providing the range of contexts and conditions to which the Performance Criteria apply. It allows for different work environments and situations that will affect performance. |
Correct size of equipment may be determined by calculating safe working loads using load charts and standard calculation rules.Potential hazards may include overhead services such as steam, gas, water, telephone and power cables, uneven or unstable ground, trees, underground services, buildings and structures, other personnel and environmental influences such as lighting, noise, temperature and wind.Tools and equipment may include spanners, hammers, pinch bars, clamps, pulleys, chain blocks, and pull lifts, winches, jacks, skids, rollers, cradle timbers, chocks and wedges, packers, fish plates and bolts, feeler gauges, turfers, turn buckles, gin poles and shear legs.Lifting equipment may include chains, spreader beams, ropes, wire ropes, shackles and eye bolts.Appropriate signals and communication methods may include verbal, hand signals, whistles, hooters, two way radio and lights (all to the relevant Australian standard).Resources may include cranes, hoists, drawings/plans and personnel.Fixing and anchoring methods may include bolting, wedging, riveting and tying.Advanced rigging work may include movement of plant and equipment; steel erection; particular hoists; placement of pre-cast concrete; safety nets and static lines; mast climbers; perimeter safety screens and shutters; cantilevered crane loading platforms; slinging and directing of loads; rigging of cranes; conveyors; dredgers and excavators; tilt slabs; demotion and dual lifts, rigging of gin poles; shear legs; flying foxes and cableways; guyed derricks and structures; and suspended scaffolds and fabricated hung scaffolds.Hazards which may affect demolition may include corroded members, impact forces, undermined foundations, hidden voids, unidentified services, hazardous substances and unstable structures.Work completion details may include plant and maintenance records, job cards, check sheets, updates and reporting and/or documenting equipment defects.Generic terms are used throughout this Training Package for vocational standard shall be regarded as part of the Range Statement in which competency is demonstrated. The definition of these and other terms are given in Volume 2, Part 1. |
