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!

FWPTMM4208 - Construct prototypes and samples for timber structures

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

Prepare for construction of prototypes and samples for timber structures

  1. Review the purpose for prototype or sample, work order, prototype construction plans, workplace health and safety requirements, environmental protection practices and emergency procedures and, where required, clarify requirements with appropriate personnel
  2. Identify and report hazards and use personal protective equipment according to workplace requirements and health and safety legislation to maintain safe work practices
  3. Obtain the type and quantity of material to be assembled and hardware according to prototype construction plan and specifications
  4. Select appropriate tools and equipment and check for operational effectiveness according to manufacturer recommendations
  5. Plan and document stages of the prototype construction process

Set up equipment and components

  1. Select and prepare set-up jigs required for prototype construction
  2. Select timber components, check for compatibility with specifications and cut according to the prototype or sample plans
  3. Position and clamp components in jigs ready for joining with allowable faults, joins and grain according to construction standards and grading rules
  4. Identify defective components, incorrect timber cuts and off-cuts and dispose of or recycle according to environmental protection practices
  5. Staple components to maintain temporary alignment during assembly

Construct and review prototypes and samples

  1. Follow prototype construction plan throughout the assembly and conduct checks at designated points
  2. Position and install hardware on joints to prototype specifications
  3. Nail or staple temporary bracing to the product according to construction standards
  4. Identify required modifications to designs and plans, and document and follow recommended changes
  5. Correct construction faults according to recommendations
  6. Review prototype or sample for the effectiveness of purpose and efficiency of timber construction methods
  7. Record prototype or sample construction processes, problems and recommendations for change, and report to appropriate personnel
  8. Store temporary bracing, prototypes and samples and dispose of when not required according to environmental protection practices
Follow prototype construction plan throughout the assembly and conduct checks at designated points
