Analyse building design drawings and review findings

Formats and tools

Unit Description
Reconstruct the unit from the xml and display it as an HTML page.
Assessment Tool
an assessor resource that builds a framework for writing an assessment tool
Assessment Template
generate a spreadsheet for marking this unit in a classroom environment. Put student names in the top row and check them off as they demonstrate competenece for each of the unit's elements and performance criteria.
Assessment Matrix
a slightly different format than the assessment template. A spreadsheet with unit names, elements and performance criteria in separate columns. Put assessment names in column headings to track which performance criteria each one covers. Good for ensuring that you've covered every one of the performance criteria with your assessment instrument (all assessement tools together).
Wiki Markup
mark up the unit in a wiki markup codes, ready to copy and paste into a wiki page. The output will work in most wikis but is designed to work particularly well as a Wikiversity learning project.
Evidence Guide
create an evidence guide for workplace assessment and RPL applicants
Competency Mapping Template
Unit of Competency Mapping – Information for Teachers/Assessors – Information for Learners. A template for developing assessments for a unit, which will help you to create valid, fair and reliable assessments for the unit, ready to give to trainers and students
Observation Checklist
create an observation checklist for workplace assessment and RPL applicants. This is similar to the evidence guide above, but a little shorter and friendlier on your printer. You will also need to create a seperate Assessor Marking Guide for guidelines on gathering evidence and a list of key points for each activity observed using the unit's range statement, required skills and evidence required (see the unit's html page for details)

Self Assessment Survey
A form for students to assess thier current skill levels against each of the unit's performance criteria. Cut and paste into a web document or print and distribute in hard copy.
Moodle Outcomes
Create a csv file of the unit's performance criteria to import into a moodle course as outcomes, ready to associate with each of your assignments. Here's a quick 'how to' for importing these into moodle 2.x
Registered Training Organisations
Trying to find someone to train or assess you? This link lists all the RTOs that are currently registered to deliver CPPBDN4009, 'Analyse building design drawings and review findings'.
Google Links
links to google searches, with filtering in place to maximise the usefulness of the returned results
Books
Reference books for 'Analyse building design drawings and review findings' on fishpond.com.au. This online store has a huge range of books, pretty reasonable prices, free delivery in Australia *and* they give a small commission to ntisthis.com for every purchase, so go nuts :)


Elements and Performance Criteria

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. Where bold italicised text is used, further information is detailed in the range of conditions.

1.

Interpret drawing conventions.

1.1.

Industry standard formats and content for technicaldrawings are interpreted.

1.2.

General technical drawing conventions used in all types of construction drawings are interpreted.

1.3.

Architectural conventions used in building design drawings are interpreted.

1.4.

Notations used in general technical and architectural drawings are interpreted.

2.

Analyse architectural drawings.

2.1.

Key features of site plans for different projects are identified in drawings and analysed.

2.2.

Key features of floor plans and sub-floor plans are identified in drawings and analysed.

2.3.

Key features of elevations of each aspect of building are identified in drawings and analysed.

2.4.

Sections of buildings are analysed to determine construction methods and features of internal design and finishes.

2.5.

Unknown elements of, or anomalies in, architectural drawings are noted for discussion with architect or building designer.

3.

Analyse drawings from other construction disciplines.

3.1.

Land survey drawings are analysed to identify topographical features of site for building design projects and requirements for cutting and filling.

3.2.

Structural engineering drawings are analysed to determine construction methods and load considerations for building design project.

3.3.

Drawings and reports from electrical, hydraulic, fire and mechanical engineers are analysed to determine layout of services for building design project.

3.4.

Drawings and drawing notations from consultants are analysed to identify recommendations for building design project.

3.5.

Unknown elements of, or anomalies in, drawings from other disciplines are noted for discussion with architect or building designer.

4.

Present and discuss findings.

4.1.

Advice is sought where required from architect or building designer to assist in identifying and analysing unknown elements of drawings.

4.2.

Findings from analysis of architectural drawings are presented to, and discussed with, architect or building designer to inform building design process.

4.3.

Findings from analysis of drawings from other construction disciplines are presented to, and discussed with, architect or building designer to inform building design process.

4.4.

Strategies for producing corrections to drawings are developed in consultation with architect or building designer and followed up as required.
