Description
This unit describes the performance outcomes required to determine material suitability for constructing competition vehicle components. It involves determining component performance specifications, researching component operating environments, establishing material specifications for the components, and testing material suitability. It involves producing new components from a design as well as producing existing components from new material.It applies to those working in the motor sport industry.No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
