MEASTR0017 — Perform major disassembly and reassembly on aircraft structure

1 Interpret specifications and organise materials

• 1.1Determine procedure for assembly and disassembly of structure in order to plan equipment use
• 1.2Select jigs, fixtures or bracing methods to maintain contour and structural integrity during disassembly and assembly operations
• 1.3Organise required components and equipment in accordance with standard enterprise procedures

2 Prepare aircraft or sub-assembly for structural disassembly

• 2.1Support structure with required jigs, fixtures or bracing
• 2.2Provide access by removing structural components as required

3 Disassemble aircraft structure or sub-assembly

• 3.1Remove structural hardware and fasteners in accordance with aircraft standard practices while observing all relevant work health and safety (WHS) requirements, including use of material safety data sheets (MSDSs) and items of personal protective equipment (PPE)
• 3.2Perform required tagging on disassembled components to facilitate correct reassembly

4 Prepare components and tooling for assembly

• 4.1Apply required sealants and restore aircraft structure surface finishes
• 4.2Check replacement component alignment for conformance to specifications prior to fastener hole generation
• 4.3Perform hole location or relocation in accordance with specification procedures and standard practices
• 4.4Follow standard practices in hole generation sequencing to ensure that assembly stress defects are not built in
• 4.5Disassemble, clean and deburr components and apply surface treatments prior to final assembly while observing all relevant WHS requirements, including the use of MSDSs and items of PPE

5 Assemble aircraft structure or sub-assembly

• 5.1Select and apply required sealants or adhesives in accordance with assembly specifications or documentation while observing all relevant WHS requirements, including use of MSDSs and items of PPE
• 5.2Position and secure components with appropriate temporary fastening devices for accurate assembly
• 5.3Select and install fasteners in accordance with assembly specifications or manuals

6 Inspect completed assemblies

• 6.1Inspect assembled components to confirm dimensional accuracy and specifications are met
• 6.2Use checking or testing equipment as required to ensure requirements are met
• 6.3Check aircraft mensuration or compliance with applicable maintenance manuals as required
• 6.4Complete and process required documentation in accordance with standard enterprise procedures

What does an assessment tool for MEASTR0017 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for MEASTR0017 needs to address all 48 unit components: 6 elements with 19 performance criteria, 7 performance evidence requirements, 19 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 MEASTR0017?

Auditori pulls the current release of MEASTR0017 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 MEASTR0017 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing MEASTR0017 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 MEASTR0017, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
