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!

implements the requirements, procedures and techniques for the safe, effective and efficient completion of underpinning construction including:

using correct drilling and excavation techniques

works effectively with others to undertake and complete the construction of underpinnings that meets all of the required outcomes including:

communicating clearly and concisely with others to receive and clarify work instructions

using a range of communication technique and systems such as signage to advise others of work activity and exclusion zones

demonstrates completion of underpinning construction that safely, effectively and efficiently meets all of the required outcomes on more than one (1) occasion including:

identifying and record in writing underpinning requirements for adjoin properties and roadways from site drawing and survey of the surrounding construction

excavating and backfilling the designated sections

conducting construction of underpinning for a minimum of two (2) projects:

one (1) using drilling techniques and;

one (1) using excavation techniques to the required job specifications

The candidate must demonstrate knowledge of construction underpinning through:

applying legislative, organisational and site requirements and procedures for:

site and equipment safety requirements

foundation work

civil construction terminology
