PURPOSE OF THE UNIT STANDARD 
Learners who are entering the field of reinforced concrete dtailing draughting require this unit standard. This unit standard exposes learners to the basic commands needed to draw a 2D object. Qualifying will be able to draw and manipulate basic single component 2D drawing.
  • Understand reinforced concrete detailing.
  • Understand stair cases and produce detailed drawings.
  • Understand reinforcement, bar marks and bending schedules.
  • Understand columns and piles.
  • Understand floor slabs. 
    		•

    LEARNING ASSUMED TO BE IN PLACE AND RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING 
    It is assumed that learners are competent in:
  • Communication, Mathematical Literacy and Computer Literacy at NQF Level 3. 
    		•

    UNIT STANDARD RANGE 
  • Reinforced concrete terms include web, flange, heel, toe, bar marks, up stand and down stand.
  • Beams will include up stand beams, down stand beams, and end wall beams.
  • Foundations include reinforced strip, pad, raft or slab.
  • Columns will include rectangular and round. 
    		•

    PROVIDERS CURRENTLY ACCREDITED TO OFFER THIS UNIT STANDARD: 
    This information shows the current accreditations (i.e. those not past their accreditation end dates), and is the most complete record available to SAQA as of today. Some Primary or Delegated Quality Assurance Functionaries have a lag in their recording systems for provider accreditation, in turn leading to a lag in notifying SAQA of all the providers that they have accredited to offer qualifications and unit standards, as well as any extensions to accreditation end dates. The relevant Primary or Delegated Quality Assurance Functionary should be notified if a record appears to be missing from here.
