The key features of health and safety regulations, for example, COSHH, PPE at Work regulations, Manual Handling, and Control of Noise Regulations.
Risk Assessments and Methods of risk reduction.
Conduct at least one destructive test(s) safely on at least two contrasting materials from two non-metallic material groups.
Explain, using the test results, how at least one mechanical property for each material type affects their in-service behavior.
Explain the operation of at least two non-destructive test methods and how the mechanical properties of two contrasting materials from two non-metallic material groups are affected by defects.
Conduct at least one destructive test(s), safely and accurately on at least two contrasting materials from two non-metallic material groups.
Assess, using the test results and an accredited data source, how at least one mechanical property for each material type affects their in-service behavior
Analyze the operation of at least two non-destructive test methods and how the mechanical properties of two contrasting materials from two non-metallic material groups are affected by defects.
Evaluate, using the results from safely and accurately conducted destructive tests, an accredited data source and research, the relationship between the mechanical properties, in-service behavior, and defects of at least two contrasting materials from two non-metallic material groups.
Finalize the assignment with a set of conclusions indicating what you have found from your experimentation.
