What an assessment for CPCCDE3021 must cover

34 assessable components: 4 elements (21 performance criteria), 2 performance evidence and 9 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 2 foundation skills. An audit-defensible tool maps every question and task back to these — that mapping is the coverage matrix Auditori generates alongside the assessment.

  • 1.5Select plant and equipment to carry out tasks that are consistent with job requirements and check for serviceability and rectify and report faults before work begins.
  • 1.6Identify environmental requirements for the project.
  • 1.7Identify, select and fit personal protective equipment (PPE).
  • 1.8Conduct crushing plant pre-start, start-up, run and shutdown procedures to ensure correct operational condition according to manufacturer requirements, and identify and correct faults or report these to supervisor.
  • 1.9Prepare work area and equipment and plan sequence of tasks in coordination with personnel.

2 Operate crushing plant.

  • 2.1Select and modify operating technique to meet changing work conditions according to manufacturer recommendations.
  • 2.2Direct uncrushed materials into hopper and maintain feed of uncrushed materials according to manufacturer instructions.
  • 2.3Monitor conduct and control operations within the equipment limitations and communicate with relevant personnel to maintain crushing and screening efficiency and effectiveness.
  • 2.4Stop and clear crushing of blocked materials and restart as required.
  • 2.5Maintain crushing plant settings.
  • 2.6Complete work within the operating capacity of the allocated equipment.

3 Carry out post-operational procedures.

  • 3.1Inspect plant and equipment and report faults.
  • 3.2Conduct operational maintenance, servicing, lubricating and housekeeping tasks.
  • 3.3Maintain and process operational records and report.
  • 3.4Shut down crushing plant according to site safety and operation plan.

4 Clean up work area.

  • 4.1Clear work area and dispose of, reuse or recycle materials.
  • 4.2Clean, check, maintain and store tools and equipment.

Performance evidence

  • To demonstrate competency in this unit, a candidate must operate a demolition material crushing plant to process a minimum of 100 tonnes of demolition material into two different nominal sizes of crushings, of between 5 mm and 100 mm.
  • In doing this, the candidate must meet the performance criteria for this unit.

Knowledge evidence

  • the compliance requirements of the relevant Australian Standards, Building Code of Australia (BCA), model codes of practice, environmental and work health and safety (WHS) legislation
  • construction terminology
  • procedures for material storage and environmentally friendly waste management
  • quality requirements relating to products of crushing operations
  • types, characteristics, uses and limitations of plant and equipment involved in the conduct of crushing operations:
  • hazards associated with the conduct of crushing operations
  • method of operation and maintenance requirements of crushing plant and equipment
  • techniques associated with the conduct of crushing operations
  • workplace and equipment safety requirements that apply to the operation of a demolition material crushing plant.

Foundation skills

  • learning skills: evaluate own actions and make judgements about performance and necessary improvements; respond to change, such as differences in current worksite environmental and sustainability requirements
  • numeracy skills: estimate weight of volumes of demolition debris; perform measurements and calculations associated with work, such as determining maximum load capacity of equipment.

Questions about assessing CPCCDE3021

What does an assessment tool for CPCCDE3021 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for CPCCDE3021 needs to address all 34 unit components: 4 elements with 21 performance criteria, 2 performance evidence requirements, 9 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills. A coverage matrix mapping each question and task to these components is what an auditor looks for.

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for CPCCDE3021?

Auditori pulls the current release of CPCCDE3021 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.

Is the first assessment tool really free?

Yes. Every new account includes one free credit — enough to generate the complete assessment tool for CPCCDE3021 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing CPCCDE3021 assessment instead of generating a new one?

Yes — upload your existing assessment or learner guide and Auditori maps it against every element, performance criterion, PE and KE of CPCCDE3021, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
