Co-ordinate and confirm the dimensional requirements of the work (OWS001)

You must be able to:

Co-ordinate and communicate with work colleagues, the information to position, line and level the work being carried out

Record and report the dimensional information passed to work colleagues

Confirm and measure the dimensional controls, setting out points, lines and profiles, and maintain them to the specified work requirements

Record and report the dimensional controls, setting out points, lines and profiles

Check and ensure measuring and recording equipment meets the specified tolerances

Record and report checks made to measuring and recording equipment

Record and report circumstances and conditions which result in deviations to the dimensional controls and ensure they are corrected in accordance with the work requirements

Record and report the circumstances and conditions that result in deviations from the dimensional controls and the amendments required in accordance with work requirements

Next: Knowledge

You must know and understand:

How to co-ordinate and communicate information to work colleagues to enable them to position, line and level the work

How to confirm and measure dimensional controls, setting out points, lines and profiles and maintain them to the specified work requirements

How to check and ensure measuring and recording equipment meets the specified tolerances

How to identify and report circumstances and conditions that result in any deviations in position, line and level

How to report and amend any deviations in position, line and level in accordance with the work requirements

Produce records showing how the dimensional information is provided to colleagues to enable them to position, line and level the work as per the specification

Produce records which confirm the dimensional controls, including setting out points, profiles, lines, levels, angles, distances, curves, calibrations and tolerances and how they were measured and maintained

Produce records which details the checks carried out to the mechanical, optical or electronic measuring and recording equipment

Identify and record any deviations caused in the transfer of lines and levels and by use of the wrong lines and levels

Identify and record any deviations in dimensional controls

Implement and record the actions take to amend any deviations

Identify and record any circumstances and conditions, including land, water, obstacles, climatic variations, live conditions (e.g. buildings and sites in use, roads, railways, runways), utilities and health and safety that affect the dimensional controls and which would require revisions
