Description
This unit describes the performance outcomes, knowledge and skills required to complete typical road drawings required in the construction of urban and rural roads to comply with the relevant drawing presentation guidelines.

It requires the ability to interpret and plot from survey data, plot horizontal alignment, tabulate and plot longitudinal section and cross section information and draw required intersections utilising computer aided drawing (CAD) software.

The unit applies to a person working at paraprofessional level in a civil engineering environment where drawings of roads are prepared.

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