What an assessment for MEM05006 must cover

39 assessable components: 5 elements (19 performance criteria), 7 performance evidence and 13 knowledge evidence requirements. 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 Determine job requirements

  • 1.1Follow standard operating procedures (SOPs)
  • 1.2Comply with work health and safety (WHS) requirements at all times
  • 1.3Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) in accordance with SOPs
  • 1.4Identify job requirements from specifications, sketches, job sheets or work instructions

2 Prepare heating equipment

  • 2.1Select the correct process to meet the job specifications
  • 2.2Ensure heating equipment is in safe working condition
  • 2.3Assemble heating equipment and set up according to SOPs
  • 2.4Determine and set gas pressures

3 Prepare materials

  • 3.1Select and prepare consumables
  • 3.2Prepare materials using appropriate tools and techniques
  • 3.3Assemble/align materials to meet specifications
  • 3.4Identify distortion prevention measures and take appropriate action
  • 3.5Undertake test run and verify

4 Braze and/or silver solder

  • 4.1Preheat materials as required
  • 4.2Apply consumables using appropriate techniques
  • 4.3Apply jointing material in appropriate quantities
  • 4.4Anneal material where required

5 Inspect joints

  • 5.1Remove excess jointing materials
  • 5.2Inspect joints and report/record inspection results according to SOPs

Performance evidence

  • following work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs) and safe work practices
  • checking condition of equipment
  • setting up: gas cylinders, hoses, blowpipes, tips and nozzles, regulators, flashback arrestors
  • preparing to braze and/or silver solder by assembling/aligning materials in an appropriate manner and applying distortion prevention methods to meet specifications
  • applying consumables and brazing and/or silver soldering ferrous and non-ferrous materials
  • annealing material using appropriate techniques
  • inspecting joints and removing excess jointing materials and recording the results

Knowledge evidence

  • safe work practices and procedures and use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
  • potential equipment faults
  • reasons for selecting specific methods of assembly/alignment
  • procedures for minimising distortion of the materials being brazed/braze welded/silver soldered
  • procedures for assembling and setting up the specific heating equipment and reasons for selection
  • reasons for selecting specific consumables
  • procedures for preheating the materials to be joined and precautions to be observed
  • conducting test runs
  • procedures for normalising the temperature of jointed materials and the consequences of inappropriate techniques
  • typical applications of brazing/braze welding and silver soldering processes
  • procedures for removing excess jointing material
  • effects of the use of inappropriate techniques and quantities of jointing material on the performance of the jointed materials
  • procedures for inspecting brazed/braze welded/silver soldered joints

Questions about assessing MEM05006

What does an assessment tool for MEM05006 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for MEM05006 needs to address all 39 unit components: 5 elements with 19 performance criteria, 7 performance evidence requirements, 13 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 MEM05006?

Auditori pulls the current release of MEM05006 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 MEM05006 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing MEM05006 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 MEM05006, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
