Learning Outcomes
This unit supports the attainment of skills and knowledge required for competent workplace performance in interior decoration and design operations of all sizes. It applies to the development of 2-D and 3-D drawings that incorporate all standard practice notations and drawing protocols.
This unit requires employability skills in initiative and enterprise, planning and organising and problem solving in order to determine drawing specifications to meet design brief requirements. Communication skills are used to interpret and document design information and complete drawings. Self management and learning skills are applied to gain additional information to support drawing design skills.
Overview of Assessment
Effectively design and produce at least two 2-D CAD drawings and two 3-D CAD drawings that document the requirements of the design brief
Apply drafting and drawing protocols in accordance with Australian Standards and the Building Code of Australia
Effectively apply design elements and principles to designing with CAD applications
Comply with legislation, regulations, standards, codes of practice and established safe practices and procedures to design with CAD applications
Communicate effectively and work safely with others in the work area
