What an assessment for MEASTR0024 must cover
21 assessable components: 3 elements (7 performance criteria), 3 performance evidence and 8 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 3 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.
Elements & performance criteria
1 Prepare to perform repair or fabricate component using PAW process
- 1.1Identify materials or components to be welded, other welding requirements and the applicable parent metal group in accordance with relevant data and standard enterprise procedures
- 1.2Select and set up welding equipment and consumables, especially the orifice, in accordance with standard enterprise procedures
- 1.3Prepare components or materials for welding in accordance with standard enterprise procedures
- 1.4Adjust equipment ready for welding process in accordance with equipment instructions
2 Plasma arc weld component
- 2.1Perform welding to the required standard in accordance with the applicable repair scheme or drawing while observing all relevant work health and safety (WHS) requirements, including the use of material safety data sheets (MSDSs) and items of personal protective equipment (PPE)
- 2.2Inspect completed welds for defects and rectify any defects in accordance with standard enterprise procedures
3 Complete documentation
- 3.1Complete required documentation in accordance with standard enterprise procedures
Performance evidence
- use plasma arc welding (PAW) techniques to weld at least three simulated aircraft components to the standards specified by the regulators Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) and the Defence Aviation Safety Authority (DASA) and to specifications during scheduled or unscheduled maintenance and as specified in the CAAP 33-1(1) Aircraft manual welding – Approvals and Qualifications select materials used in the construction of aircraft components that are suitable for PAW
- apply PAW to components where it is specified as either a fabrication or repair technique
- safely apply advanced gas tungsten arc welding skills and principles in the context of welding aircraft components or materials.
Knowledge evidence
- regulatory requirements applicable to aircraft welding
- standards applicable to aircraft welding, including: regulations relating to required test pieces, process specifications, repair manuals, overhaul manuals, Australian and New Zealand Standards
- the procedure for assessment of weld test pieces
- equipment required for PAW and its operation and maintenance requirements
- the relative advantages of the plasma process for welding and cutting
- the composition of gases used in the PAW process
- the use of PAW in relation to specified aircraft parent metal groups, including: aluminium alloys, magnesium alloys, carbon steels and low alloy steels, corrosion and heat resisting steels, nickel alloys, copper-based alloys, titanium alloys
- work health and safety (WHS) precautions applicable to PAW and applicable personal protective equipment (PPE).
Foundation skills
- Reading skills: to interpret equipment information, welding requirements and repair schemes.
- Writing skills: to complete documentation.
- Numeracy skills: to interpret technical information including sketches and drawings, and data.

Questions about assessing MEASTR0024
What does an assessment tool for MEASTR0024 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for MEASTR0024 needs to address all 21 unit components: 3 elements with 7 performance criteria, 3 performance evidence requirements, 8 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 MEASTR0024?
Auditori pulls the current release of MEASTR0024 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 MEASTR0024 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing MEASTR0024 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 MEASTR0024, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
