Application
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to complete installing walls and roofs in recreational vehicles by installing insulation, cladding, checker plate and finishing moulding. The unit does not include building wall/roof frames, whichMSMRV367Fabricate frame structures addresses or installing frames, whichMSMRV368Install frame structures addresses.
The unit applies to a person working in a recreational vehicle manufacturing facility who undertakes routine tasks according to job instructions, plans/specifications and procedures and uses discretion and judgement in selecting equipment, services and contingency measures. They work with a high degree of self-direction and limited supervision. They apply known solutions to routine problems and report non-routine problems according to procedures. They are responsible for their output and have limited responsibility for the output of others.
No licensing or certification requirements exist at the time of publication. Relevant legislation, industry standards and codes of practice within Australia must be applied.
