Unit of Competency MSFFM3011 - Measure and draw site layout for manufactured furniture products
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit of competency covers measuring and recording site layout details to provide an accurate basis for both manufacture and installation of furniture products.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Assessors must:

hold training and assessment competencies as determined by the National Skills Standards Council (NSSC) or its successors

have vocational competency in the furnishing industry at least to the level being assessed with broad industry knowledge and experience, usually combined with a relevant industry qualification

be familiar with the current skills and knowledge used and have relevant, current experience in the furnishing industry.

Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time rather than a single assessment event and in a range of workplace relevant contexts.

Assessment must be by observation of relevant tasks with questioning on underpinning knowledge and, where applicable, multimedia evidence, supervisor’s reports, projects and work samples.

Assessment is to be conducted on single units of competency or in conjunction with other related units of competency. Foundation skills are integral to competent performance in the unit and should not be assessed separately.

Assessment must occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant process, equipment, materials, work instructions and deadlines.

Access is required to information on the site and products for measurement and calculation, suitable work area appropriate to the activity, suitable site plans/drawings and/or specifications, and measuring, calculating and recording devices.

Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Obtain measurements
  • The purpose of obtaining measurements is clarified and confirmed
  • The most appropriate method of obtaining the measurement is selected and applied
  • Accurate measurements are obtained, confirmed and recorded
  • Calculations required for the measurement or validation are selected and correctly applied
  • Quality assurance requirements, standards and tolerances associated with enterprise operations are recognised and adhered to
       
Element: Draw site layout
  • Intended use of the site is clarified and confirmed
  • A site plan is prepared showing all features and measurements
  • A site elevation is completed showing all features and measurements
  • Unique and non-complying features which may impact on manufacture and/or installation are highlighted and referred to the appropriate party

Specifies different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included. Range is restricted to essential operating conditions and any other variables essential to the work environment.

Unit scope includes:

measurement and drawing of site layout related to the manufacture and installation of furniture, cabinets, glass, soft furnishings, upholstery, picture framing and floor covering products

Drawing include:

manual or computer-aided

Measurements:

are to be in metric scale, cover all dimensions of the site and furnishings and involve the use of:

rulers

tape measures

squares

service detectors

laser or equivalent technology

Critical dimensions that may impact on manufacture and installation include:

the square of the structure

angles of floor to walls

walls to ceiling

vertical walls

horizontal floor and ceiling

service locations and critical structural criteria

Calculations include:

area

perimeter

volume

mass

scales and ratios (ingredients/elements and triangulation) and require the application of addition

subtraction

multiplication and division processes

calculations are to be performed both manually and with the aid of a calculator

Unit context includes:

work health and safety (WHS) requirements, including legislation, building codes, material safety management systems, hazardous substances and dangerous goods codes and local safe operating procedures

work is carried out in accordance with legislative obligations, environmental legislation, relevant health regulations, manual handling procedures and organisation insurance requirements
