This unit of competency has been developed for Engineering Tradesperson – Fabrication apprenticeship training and the recognition of trade-level skills in fabrication, forming and shaping of a wide variety of shapes and products undertaken using a variety of forming and shaping techniques.

Fabrication, forming and shaping is done to specifications interpreted from technical drawings and job specifications using a variety of tools and equipment.

Skills covered by this unit are generally applied in occupational and work situations associated with steel fabrication, boiler making or sheet metal work.

Where heating and thermal cutting is required unit MEM05007 Perform manual heating and thermal cutting should also be selected.

Where marking off/out skills is required unit MEM12007 Mark off/out structural fabrications and shapes should also be selected.

Where welds are required to meet legislative or regulatory requirements appropriate welding units should also be selected.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

Band: A

Unit Weight: 8

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assingnment, checklist) and due date here

Assessment task 1: [title]      Due date:

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

This field allows for different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included.
Tools and equipment include one (1) or more of the following:	presses shapers benders rollers drop hammers
Material includes one (1) or more of the following:	plate sheet tube pipe
Metal includes one (1) or more of the following:	ferrous non-ferrous
Forming and shaping include one (1) or more of the following:	levelling straightening rolling pressing bending
Forming and shaping is applied to produce one (1) or more of the following:	pipework chamfers cylinders cones angles hoppers ductwork square to round transitions' lobster backs tubular shapes, including hand rails, reticulation pipework and mufflers

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
