PURPOSE AND RATIONALE OF THE QUALIFICATION 
Purpose:
The purpose of this qualification is to prepare the learner to:

  • Mark off and fabricate structural steel and other metal stock.
  • Make or repair metal products and structures which may include pressure vessels and pipes.
    > Note: Products include but are not limited to: Manufacture or repaired metal structures, vessels, pipe systems, pressure vessels, heavy duty equipment, sheet metals, road tankers, oilrig stations, mechanical chassis, bins, water tanks, yachts, work boats, high speed vessels, square to rounds, cones, boilers, ducting, water tubes, shell boiler, railway trucks, chutes etc.

    A qualified learner will be able to:

  • Interpreting drawings and develop patterns and templates.
  • Select, caring for and use/operate trade related hand tools, equipment and machines.
  • Cut and weld materials and components for fabrication.
  • Fabricate components and/or structures.
  • Erect and assemble plate and pipe components and structures.

    Rationale:
    Boilermaking, in the context of this qualification, is the designing and fabrication of complex metal components. These components are usually required for initial or replacement purposes within various industry sectors, as well as for maintenance purposes. The main focus is on interpreting complex drawings, the lay out and development of complex metal components, and manipulation of metal (sheet metal, plate and pipe) to produce usable components, as per design requirements.

    This qualification is for learners who wish to further their learning and to possibly specialise in fabrication, within the context of boiler making, plating, welding, sheet metal working or auto vehicle body building. This qualification also enables the learner to develop him/herself to be able to progress to supervisory levels. It is suitable for application in various industries, such as the Mining and Minerals Industry; Chemical; Petro-Chemical; Metal, Engineering and related industries.

    The qualification also forms the basis for further learning in the field of engineering fabrication where the learner will be able to specialise in one of the Fabrication or Welding skills areas at NQF Level 5.

    Most industries rely on the design and fabrication of complex metal components. Examples of this may be the chemical industry where a wide variety of pipes of various shapes and sizes are utilised. Invariably these pipes are unique to a particular plant and need to be specifically fabricated to be fit-for-purpose. The mining and minerals industry typically has a need for designing and fabricating components that require special welding and fabrication processes to cater for the moving of men and materials. It is evident that each peculiar industry will have specific specialist requirements.

    The design of this qualification stems from the collaborative approach to achieve generic type qualifications that allow progression and access, within and between sectors. Certain components of learning within this qualification may have relevance within other engineering learning fields. This will predominantly be in the area of interpreting complex drawings, welding and the lay-out and development of complex metal components.

    The qualifying learner will be employable in a broad industry context, and will thus contribute to the economy of the relevant organisation and the country. The learner will benefit from obtaining this qualification due to the fact that industry has a need for persons with the ability to design, develop and fabricate complex industry related equipment.

    This qualification focuses on developing the skills and knowledge necessary to perform at the level of competence required.

    The learner may also choose to learn towards achievement in other fields, as the learning in the fundamental and core component of this qualification lends itself to lateral as well as vertical articulation. This qualification enables learners who have gained relevant experience in the workplace to gain credits through the Recognition of Prior Learning process.

    The qualification will integrate three registered qualifications across NQF Levels 2, 3 and 4 to meet the requirements of a single trade qualification.

INTERNATIONAL COMPARABILITY 
This qualification is closely related to two Canadian Red-Seal recognised qualifications, namely:

Boilermaker 2008 (Code 7262).
Metal Fabricator (Fitter) 2008 (Code 7263).
These two National Occupational Analyses are recognised by the federal government of Canada as the Inter-provincial Standards or national standard for the occupations of boilermaker and metal fabricator and has the copy right of the Government (�Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Canada, 2008).

The frameworks of these qualifications are respectively:

Boilermaker:
Occupational Skills:
Task 1 Uses and maintains tools and equipment.
Task 2 Organises work.
Task 3 Performs routine trade activities.
Task 4 Performs cutting and welding activities.

Rigging and Hoisting:
Task 5 Plans lift.
Task 6 Rigs load.
Task 7 Hoists load.
Task 8 Performs post-lift activities.

New Construction:
Task 9 Performs fabrication.
Task 10 Prepares for new construction.
Task 11 Assembles and fits vessels and components.
Task 12 Fastens components.

Upgrading, Maintenance and Repair:
Task 13 Services vessels and components.
Task 14 Removes vessels and components.

And

Metal Fabricator (Fitter):

Occupational Skills:
Task 1 Maintains and uses tools and equipment.
Task 2 Organises work.
Task 3 Performs quality assurance.
Task 4 Handles materials.

Fabrication of Components:
Task 5 Performs layout.
Task 6 Cuts materials.
Task 7 Forms materials.

Assembly of Components:
Task 8 Fits and fastens sub-components and components.
Task 9 Performs welding activities.
Task 10 Prepares products for finishes.

These two qualifications were chosen because they reflect the boilermaker practices in South Africa better than any of the other qualifications considered.

During the design of this curriculum, both the above mentioned documents were used as a main resource and input because of the clear overlap between the qualifications. However, none of these two qualifications could be excluded, because of those sections which are unique to the qualification.

Because of a strong support that the current apprenticeship qualification is of good standard, it was likewise considered as resource during developing the qualification. The current fabrication qualifications registered on the South African NQF were also used as input.

The component on Welding and Cutting was added to the qualification, because of an explicit need from the South African industries and specifically the mining sector.

The work experience component of the curriculum is a unique South African feature and was added to the curriculum in accordance with the QCTO policy guidelines.
