Explanatory notes
1
This unit standard is designed for people who are forming sheet, plate and sections
in the fabrication industry under supervision. Forming can also include straightening.
2
The fabrication industry involves working with a wide range of material types, shapes
and thicknesses. Material types include low carbon and alloy steels, stainless steels,
aluminium alloys, copper alloys, and plastics. Shapes include sheet, plate, and
sections.
3
For credit, assessment must involve more than one material type, more than one
shape and more than one thickness with a material range of either:
a
0.4mm to 6mm sheet and plate;
or
b
3mm plate upwards.
4
Assessment must be across a range of forming and shaping operations. Forming
may include hot or cold forming of seams, joints and stiffeners and use of standard
hand and hand held power operated equipment.

Please note
Providers must be granted consent to assess against standards (accredited) by NZQA,
before they can report credits from assessment against unit standards or deliver courses
of study leading to that assessment.
Industry Training Organisations must be granted consent to assess against standards by
NZQA before they can register credits from assessment against unit standards.
Providers and Industry Training Organisations, which have been granted consent and
which are assessing against unit standards must engage with the moderation system that
applies to those standards.
Requirements for consent to assess and an outline of the moderation system that applies
to this standard are outlined in the Consent and Moderation Requirements (CMR). The
CMR also includes useful information about special requirements for organisations wishing
to develop education and training programmes, such as minimum qualifications for tutors
and assessors, and special resource requirements.
