Performance Task 2 (Learning Objective 4) • Calculate the quantities of lumber, panel, and concrete products using industry-standard methods. Teaching Time: 20 hours (Eight 2.5-hour sessions) Session time may be adjusted to accommodate your class size, schedule, and teaching style. Prerequisites Core Curriculum Before You Begin As you prepare for each session, allow sufficient time to review the course objectives, content, visual aids (including the PowerPoint® presentation), and these lesson plans, and to gather the required equipment and materials. Consider time required for demonstrations, laboratories, field trips, and testing. Using your access code, download the Module Examinations and Performance Profile Sheets from www.nccerirc.com. The passing score for submission into NCCER’s Registry is 70 percent or above for the Module Examination; performance testing is graded pass or fail. Safety Considerations This module requires that trainees demonstrate the safe and proper installation of drop-in anchors. Safety is paramount in the carpentry trade and safe habits and practices must be emphasized whenever possible. Performance Tasks must be completed under supervision. Each trainee must use required PPE and follow safe tool practices and procedures. ii NCCER – Carpentry Level One 27102-13 Classroom Equipment Equipment and Materials for Laboratories and and Materials Performance Testing Whiteboard/Chalkboard Personal protective Sand Markers/Chalk equipment (PPE): Water Pencils and paper Hard hat Blank job hazard analysis Carpentry Level One Safety glasses (JHA) forms PowerPoint® Presentation Gloves Small loads for lifting Slides Hearing protection demonstration
