Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

AHCLSC301A - Set out site for construction works

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Interpret site plans and specifications

  1. The various components of the site plan and specifications are identified.
  2. Site plan and specifications are compared with other available plans to ensure accuracy of information.
  3. Equipment required for the setting out of construction works is determined from the site plan and specifications.
  4. Environmental impact of proposed construction works is considered in the interpretation of site plans.
  5. Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) hazards associated with the setting out of construction works are assessed for potential risks, and controls implemented accordingly.

Locate and mark out position of construction works

  1. Existing site features are located from the site plan.
  2. Position of proposed construction works is located from the site plan.
  3. Scale measurements of lines, shapes, angles and dimensions are transferred from the site plan to site.
  4. The shape of proposed construction works is marked out on site according to the site plan and specifications.
Existing site features are located from the site plan.

Instructions to Assessors

Evidence Guide

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Overview of assessment

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

The evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit must be relevant to workplace operations and satisfy holistically all of the requirements of the performance criteria and required skills and knowledge and include achievement of the following:

interpret site plans and specifications

locate and mark out position of construction works

establish datum point and survey benchmarks on site

take and verify site levels.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Competency requires the application of work practices under work conditions. Selection and use of resources for some worksites may differ due to the regional or enterprise circumstances.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

implement mathematical and geometrical principles when locating and marking out a site for construction works

use a range of surveyors instruments

use literacy skills to read, interpret and follow organisational policies and procedures, follow sequenced written instructions, record information collected accurately and legibly, and select and apply procedures for a range of tasks

use oral communication skills/language competence to fulfil the job role as specified by the organisation, including questioning techniques, active listening, clarifying information and consulting with supervisors as required

use interpersonal skills to work with and relate to people from a range of cultural, social and religious backgrounds and with a range of physical and mental abilities.

Required knowledge

interpretation of symbols and use of a legend on site plans and specifications, particularly in relation to benchmarks and the location of existing features

understanding of compass directions and how to locate North from a site plan

an awareness of other plans that may be referred to when setting out a site for construction works

an awareness of common levelling and surveying terms

environmental awareness associated with the preparation for construction works to ensure that the impact on the environment is minimal when works are implemented

OHS hazards associated with setting out a site for construction works.

Range Statement

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole.

Set out may include:

the range of site plans and specifications, measuring and surveying equipment.
