Unit of Competency LMTTF2006A - Measure and scale geometric shapes
Description This unit covers the skills and knowledge to take accurate measurements and related information from customer information or actual objects or structures.
Employability Skills This unit contains employability skills.
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit applies to taking accurate measurements and related information from customer information or actual objects or structures and may involve interaction with enterprise clients either individually or in collaboration with other personnel from the enterprise.Work may be conducted in a variety of environments, such as:operational indoor workplacesoperational outdoor workplacesWork may be conducted in small to large scale enterprises and may involve individual and team activities. Work is performed within defined procedures may require the exercise of discretion and judgement. The application of this unit is according to OHS practices of the enterprise and workplace practices, which may include:requirements prescribed by legislation, awards, agreements and conditions of employmentstandard operating procedureswork instructionsoral, written and visual communicationquality practices, including responsibility for maintenance of own work quality and contribution to quality improvement of team or section outputhousekeepingtasks related to environmental protection, waste disposal, pollution control and recyclingThis unit requires the application of skills associated with reading and interpreting and recording information on customer requirements, as well as measuring and calculating data using appropriate processes, tools and equipment. Problem solving skills will be applied to determine and obtain all necessary data. Self management skills are applied to ensure workplace and quality standards are achieved.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Interpret information
  • Drawings, sketches or diagrams provided by customer are identified and read
  • Workplace procedures and instructions are identified and read
  • Established dimensions are read from supplied drawings or other information
  • Missing dimensions or other unknown aspects of the product are identified through consultation with customer
  • Drawings or diagrams are scaled where necessary to obtain dimensions needed for production
  • Appropriate tools, equipment and resources are selected
       
Element: Obtain relevant dimensions from physical objects
  • Physical dimensions are taken from buildings, architectural structures, vehicles, caravans, or marine craft, as appropriate and recorded
  • Angles are calculated or otherwise determined and recorded for future reference
  • Geometric shapes are identified or determined and relevant information recorded
  • OHSpractices are applied during the gathering of measurements both on and off site
  • Knowledge of measurements and scaling processes are applied to perform required tasks
       
Element: Record and communicate data
  • Data is recorded using established workplace format and documentation
  • Information is stored
  • Data and associated information are passed on to personnel responsible for further action within the organisation
       


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.

The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the Performance Criteria, Required Skills and Knowledge, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

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

Demonstrates skills and knowledge to:

take accurate measurements

use information from diagrams and drawings

calculate measurements

scale dimensions

document measurements

Consistently applies skills and knowledge when:

organising work

completing tasks

identifying improvements

using workplace practices

using OHS practices

recording and reporting accidents and incidents

assessing operational readiness of equipment used and work processes

recognising and adapting to cultural differences in the workplace, including modes of behaviour and interactions

completing work systematically with attention to detail without damage to goods and equipment

Context and specific resources for assessment

Assessment may occur on the job or in an appropriately simulated environment and requires access to work areas, materials and equipment, and to information on workplace practices and OHS practices.

Guidance information for assessment

This unit may be assessed independently or in combination with other relevant units. However, it may be found convenient to assess it in conjunction with LMTTF2005A Translate information into measurements or diagrams

Submission Requirements

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

This describes the essential skills and knowledge and their level required for this unit.

Demonstrates knowledge of:

range of products and services offered by the workplace

operating principles of products and equipment on offer

common types of materials used in the industry and their applications

limitations of canvas and other common materials used in the industry

shrinkage rates for common materials used in the industry

common types of strengthening and fastenings

measuring instruments and techniques

mathematical processes and formulae (e.g. areas, volumes)

plane geometry and plane geometrical shapes

meaning of engineering drawing symbols

general principles of CAD

product construction processes commonly used in the industry

general industry housekeeping policies and procedures

OHS practices, including hazard identification and control measures

quality practices

workplace practices

recording and reporting practices

Demonstrates skills to:

conceptualise customer needs from customer information

interpret diagrams and drawings

take accurate measurements

take measurements off existing drawings

calculate surface areas

accurately calculate lengths subtended by angles

accurately calculate angles

accurately scale drawings to obtain dimensions

establish positions of clear panels

read, interpret and follow information on work specifications, standard operating procedures and work instructions and other reference material

maintain accurate records

communicate within the workplace

sequence operations

meet specifications

clarify and check task-related information

carry out work according to OHS practices

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.

Tools, equipment and resources may include

measuring equipment

rules

squares

protractors

calculators

OHS practices

OHS practices must include hazard identification and control, risk assessment and implementation of risk reduction measures specific to the tasks described by this unit, and may include:

manual handling techniques

standard operating procedures

personal protective equipment

safe materials handling

taking of rest breaks

ergonomic arrangement of workplaces

following marked walkways

safe storage of equipment

housekeeping

reporting accidents and incidents

other OHS practices relevant to the job and enterprise

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
