Board warped in excess of 2% is not to be used during assessment. The process for
defining and calculating warp percentage is as follows: when a warped board is laid
on a level surface so as to form a shallow arch, the maximum vertical deviation from
the horizontal is expressed as a percentage of the board dimension that forms the
arch.
6
Assessments must be conducted where board sheet size is 20% above the
machine’s specified minimum limit and 20% below the machine’s specified maximum
limit.
Outcomes and evidence requirements
Outcome 1
Set up the machine for production.
Evidence requirements
1.1

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.
