Description
This unit of competency covers the skills and knowledge required to use a computer to develop 2-D patterns for the production of complex shapes in sails and canvas products, and to perform work-related calculations.The unit of competency applies to the computerised development of 2-D drawings, computerised cutting of shapes using a plotting table, and calculation of material requirements and costing.Work may be conducted in operational indoor workplaces using computers, plotters and associated software applications, including spreadsheets and computer-aided design (CAD).This unit may require the interaction with customers, individuals delegated by the customer, and other personnel from the operator's workplace.Work may be conducted in small to large scale enterprises and may involve individual and team activities. Work is performed within defined procedures under direct supervision. No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
