NOTE TO STUDENTS These instructions must be followed when doing the assessment in this unit. This competency is to be assessed using standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints. Assessment of essential underpinning knowledge will usually be conducted in an off-site context. Assessment is to comply with relevant regulatory or Australian standards' requirements. Resource implications for assessment include: • an induction procedure and requirement • realistic tasks or simulated tasks covering the mandatory task requirements • relevant specifications and work instructions • tools and equipment appropriate to applying safe work practices • support materials appropriate to activity • workplace instructions relating to safe work practices and addressing hazards and emergencies • material safety data sheets • research resources, including industry-related systems information. Reasonable adjustments for people with disabilities must be made to assessment processes where required. This could include access to modified equipment and other physical resources and the provision of appropriate assessment support. What happens if your result is ‘Not Yet Competent’ for one or more assessment tasks? The assessment process is designed to answer the question “has the participant satisfactorily demonstrated competence yet?” If the answer is “Not yet”, then we work with you to see how we can get there. In the case that one or more of your assessments has been marked ‘NYC’, your Trainer will provide you with the necessary feedback and guidance, in order for you to resubmit/redo your assessment task(s). What if you disagree on the assessment outcome? You can appeal against a decision made in regards to an assessment of your competency. An appeal should only be made if you have been assessed as ‘Not Yet Competent’ against specific competency standards and you feel you have sufficient grounds to believe that you are entitled to be assessed as competent. You must be able to adequately demonstrate that you have the skills and experience to be able to meet the requirements of the unit you are appealing against the assessment of. You can request a form to make an appeal and submit it to your Trainer, the Course Coordinator, or an Administration Officer. The RTO will examine the appeal and you will be

advised of the outcome within 14 days. Any additional information you wish to provide may be attached to the form. What if I believe I am already competent before training? If you believe you already have the knowledge and skills to be able to demonstrate competence in this unit, speak with your Trainer, as you may be able to apply for Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL). Credit Transfer Credit transfer is recognition for study you have already completed. To receive Credit Transfer, you must be enrolled in the relevant program. Credit Transfer can be granted if you provide the RTO with certified copies of your qualifications, a Statement of Attainment or a Statement of Results along with Credit Transfer Application Form. (For further information please visit Credit Transfer Policy.

Task 1. A soil investigation was conducted for a proposed construction site to prepare a comprehensive geotechnical report. Initially, soil samples were collected and sent to the laboratory for analysis. The geotechnical engineering team subjected the samples to different tests to get technical information and specify the correct site classification according to Australian Standard AS 2870/2011 and NCC. The results reveal the composition of the soil as below: · Clay: 38% · Silt: 35% · Sand: 27% As a technician, you are required to prepare a report that includes the following information: a. Refer to the USDA soil texture triangle and find out the soil type. The entire process of soil classification should be discussed and show the exact type of soil on the USDA soil texture triangle. – clay loam b. By knowing the soil type, refer to NCC, volume two, part 3.2.4, and find the site class. - Stiffened raft
