2. Select, fit and use personal protective clothing and/or equipment
3. Identify and obtain the required components, equipment and measuring instrumentation
4. Use appropriate equipment to position components ready for joining
5. Check accuracy of component position using measuring instruments as required
6. Prepare ends for joining
7. Identify and correct unacceptable component assembly where appropriate
8. Maintain work area to meet housekeeping standards
Knowledge of:
9. Relevant state OHS legislation, standards and codes of practice relating to work responsibilities
10. Purpose and basic principles of fabrication. This includes knowledge of methods used to assemble and fix components and basic understanding of the effects of distortion on fabricated components
11. Safe work procedures including awareness of health and safety hazards
12. Use of equipment to position components to meet assembly requirements

17. Options for correcting out-of-tolerance fabrication
18. Housekeeping standards for the work area
Relationship with other standards
Pre-requisite units
The pre-requisites for this competency standard are:
BCC1004A Carry out measurement and calculations
BCC1005A Use hand and power tools
Co-assessment of related units
Other units of competency relevant to the work role should be assessed in conjunction with this unit.
Where welding is the fixing method to be used, select the appropriate welding unit.
Resources required for assessment
Assessment must occur in a real or simulated workplace where the assessee has access to:
Fabrication equipment
Relevant measuring instrumentation
Components to be fabricated
Drawings, sketches and specifications as required
Operating procedures and related advice on equipment/instrumentation operation
Personal protective clothing and equipment
Housekeeping standards and procedures
Assessment requirements
For information on how to assess this competency standard and who can assess, refer to the Assessment Guidelines for this Training Package.
The range statement indicates the context for demonstrating competence. This statement is a guide and unless otherwise indicated, items may or may not apply as required by the work context.
Work is carried out in accordance with company policies and procedures, manufacturer's recommendations, legislative requirements, codes of practice and industrial awards and agreements. Codes of practice include the Sugar Milling Operations Industry Code of Practice.
Components may include general fabricated components in plate, pipe and section or sheet to form 90( or 45( angles or angles formed using pre-constructed jigs
Typical applications apply to general jobbing work such as fabrication of simple pump bases, signs and brackets
Typical fixing/joining methods are by welding or screwing
Materials may include ferrous, non ferrous and non-metallic substances
Measuring instrumentation may include squares, line levels, rulers and spirit levels
Work may require the ability to work within a team environment
