Overview

This unit covers assembling general fabricated components
in plate, pipe and section or sheet.

Assessment

For Melbourne campuses

Assessment tasks will be designed to reinforce and extend knowledge and skill competence within set and controlled parameters in accordance with each unit’s learning outcomes and performance criteria requirements, including the setting of work based practical application tasks designed to provide evidence of competence outcomes, within periodic and scheduled timelines.

Students will be expected to demonstrate the following required skills:

constructing jigs where appropriate;
applying distortion prevention/control techniques;
positioning components in accordance with drawing/specifications;
using jigs, fixtures, tools and equipment;
correctly marking the datum line;
checking the position of all assembled components visually and dimensionally, and;
using appropriate fixing/joining techniques.

Students will also be expected to demonstrate the following knowledge:

methods for assembly of fabricated components;
jigs construction;
effects of distortion of fabricated components;
distortion prevention techniques;
drawing and material list;
characteristics of relevant tools and equipment squareness, level and alignment;
function of datum lines;
variety of fixing/joining techniques;
defects associated with the assembly of fabricated components;
methods of rectification of defects by rework or adjustment, and;
requirements of relevant codes/standards.

Required reading

The qualified trainer and assessor will provide teaching and learning materials as required in the form of workbooks produced by the Polytechnic and/or via the Polytechnic e-learning system.
