Establish dimensional control criteria

URN: COSVR736
Business Sectors (Suites): Construction Site Management
Developed by: CITB
Approved on: 2020

Overview

"This standard is about ensuring the project dimensional control information is in accordance with specified accuracy criteria, ensuring project dimensional controls are regularly and appropriately checked for operational and post-completion requirements in accordance with current organisational requirements which are equal to or exceed current statutory and legislative requirements.
This standard is for people working in the occupational area of construction site management which is defined as the management of multiple construction trades and disciplines and can be used by supervisors and managers"


Performance criteria

You must be able to:

"P1      collect, collate and analyse relevant pre-construction
          information, ensuring that it is up to date and accurate
P2      establish and record the relevant dimensional control
          information for the project
P3      ensure that variations in dimensional control are identified,
          recorded and notified to stakeholders
P4      establish a dimensional control monitoring system, which
          ensures dimensional controls are maintained
P5      ensure that measuring and recording equipment is calibrated
          and maintained to meet the specified accuracy criteria and
          the checks are recorded"
