Explanatory notes
1
This unit standard may be used to award credit for the achievement of learning
outcomes consistent with Technology in the New Zealand Curriculum (Learning
Media Wellington, 1995).
2
In the process of attaining this unit standard, evidence could be generated from more
than one drawing.
3
In the process of attaining this unit standard, learners are expected to use
constructions for the following: bisection of lines and angles, angles (multiples of 15
degrees), tangents and regular polygons; parallel and radial line development of right
prisms, pyramids and cones.
Outcomes and evidence requirements
Outcome 1
Select plane geometry methods for drawing.
Evidence requirements
1.1
Problems in the drawings which need geometrical constructions are identified.
1.2
Geometrical construction methods identified and selected enable the problems
to be solved.
Outcome 2
Apply plane geometry construction to drawing.

Evidence requirements
2.1
Application of construction provides solution in accordance with drawing
requirements.
Outcome 3
Produce true shape development of geometrical solids.
Range
right prisms, pyramids and cones with inclined cutting plane.
Evidence requirements
3.1
Construction of views of geometrical solids meets development requirements in
terms of the identified problem.
3.2
Construction of auxiliary views meets development requirements of the problem
and includes stretchout lines, true length diagrams, and true shape first auxiliary
views.
3.3
Construction of true shape development meets design requirements in terms of
accuracy, scale, and type of construction used.

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.
