However, we will provide the background information you need to know in order to take measurements on-site and use them to solve basic geometric and mathematical questions.
Working through this unit
Audio 4 (mp3 |6|KB)There are two sections in this unit:
- Calculating
- Measuring.
Each section contains an Overview and a set of Lessons which cover the content material.
Assignments and practical demonstrations
There are no stand-alone assignments for this unit.
Your trainer may use the work you undertake in this learner guide and workbook to count towards your assessment of competence. However, your main assessment tasks will be integrated with the assessment tasks from other competencies in the Certificate III in Flooring Technology that have a particular focus on calculations and measurement.
They may include one of more of the following units covered in the Flooring Technology website project:
You will also need to perform a range of practical demonstrations.
