Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)
You may already have some or most of the knowledge and skills covered
in this learner's guide because you have:
been working for some time
already completed training in this area.
If you can demonstrate to your trainer that you are competent in a
particular skill or skills, talk to him/her about having them formally recognized
so you don't have to do the same training again. If you have a qualification or
Certificate of Competency from previous trainings, show it to your trainer. If
the skills you acquired are still current and relevant to the unit/s of
competency they may become part of the evidence you can present for RPL. If
you are not sure about the currency of your skills, discuss this with your
trainer.
This module was prepared to help you achieve the required competency,
in Utilize Electronic Media in Facilitating Training. This will be the source of
information for you to acquire knowledge and skills in this particular trade
independently and at your own pace, with minimum supervision or help from
your instructor.
Talk to your trainer and agree on how you will both organize the
Training of this unit. Read through the module carefully. It is
divided into sections, which cover all the skills, and knowledge you
need to successfully complete this module.
Work through all the information and complete the activities in
each section. Read information sheets and complete the self-check.
Suggested references are included to supplement the materials
provided in this module.
Most probably your trainer will also be your supervisor or
manager. He/she is there to support you and show you the correct
way to do things.
Your trainer will tell you about the important things you need to
consider when you are completing activities and it is important

Screwdriver Nail-Punch ,
Triangular trowel
There are different kinds and sizes of trowels. The blade should be made of
forged steel to last longer. Handles are generally made of plastic or wood.
Blades vary from 9 to 12 inches in length and 4 to 7 inches in width. The
larger trowels are used for spreading mortar. A variety of smaller trowels are
used repairing old mortar joints and scraping off excess mortar. A trowel that
you feel comfortable with can be used to do all of the above, however, you will
need a separate tool to finish the mortar joints.
Mason’s hammer
This tool is used for hammering nails and for splitting block or brick with the
other end. One end is square and flat and is used like a hammer. The other
end is sharp, like a small chisel. The sharp chisel-end is used to make a
cutting line around the masonry to be split.
Blocking chisel
If there are more than just a few blocks or bricks that need to be split, and
very clean cuts are required, then a blocking chisel should be used. This is a
heavier, wider chisel, up to 8 inches wide. It comes in a variety of sizes and
shapes. These chisels are made of steel and are used by holding the small
end and striking the end with a heavy mashing hammer, mallet or sledge
hammer. This will give a clean cut with usually just one blow.
Mashing hammer
Level
The purpose of the level is to keep the work you are be straight or level. If you
lay more than one block at a time, you might want to get a level that is at least
36" long. Some levels are available up to 48", although mostly used by
professional masons. Since most block
is 16" long, you'll want a level between
18" and 24".doing plumb (even up and
down, or vertically) and even straight
across, or horizontally. A good level
usually has 6 vials, two in the center,
two at each end. The bubble must line
up between the two red or black lines in
order to
Steel square
When laying your wall, you'll want to
make sure your corners are at a 90 degree
angle, assuming you're building a square or
rectangle wall. A large steel square, usually
24" long, should be used for marking off
corners when laying out the job, and for
checking corners as the wall is being built. If
you are building a room, garage, etc., you'll
also want to use a 12" square for checking
window and door openings. If these openings are not square, the windows and
door may not fit.
Jointer
A jointer is used to finish a mortar joint after it becomes hard enough so that
a finger print will show in the mortar upon being pressed. Jointers come in
many sizes and shapes, but typically, for blocks, you'll use a sled jointer to
create a 3/8th inch joint for long horizontal joints. Vertical or head joints,
which are only 8" high, use a
smaller jointer. Jointers are
shaped to give a variety of
indentations, depending on
your preference. The most
popular are the V joint and
the half-rounded joint
(concave joint). These two
kinds of joints help shed water
better than any other kind of
joint.
If you are using clay brick, or other brick products, you will want to use a
jointer made specifically for brick.
Brushes
After a wall is built, there may be some
mortar stains or powder residue on the
wall. Before cleaning solutions are used,
these marks can often be brushed off the
surface. A variety of brushes are
available. Powder residue can usually be
brushed off with a medium soft bristle
brush. A light accumulation of mortar could be brushed with a stiff bristle
brush. If not, an abrasive stone or piece of same block or brick after testing in
an obscure area may do the job.

Building materials used during early years were stone, mud and other
materials. Instead of concrete, mud was used to fill the gaps between bricks
and stones. Construction was done using crude methods and techniques. Clay,
leaves, twigs and so forth were also used by people in the olden days to build
houses.
Clay and mud: During the earlier days, clay and mud was the most commonly
used material though it was not as strong as the concrete constructions.
However, it helped to keep houses cool during summers.
Wood: Another most frequently used material is wood. Down the ages, wood
has been used by people to build homes, furniture like tables, desks, chairs
and so forth. Wooden homes and cabins are found in many places even today.
Depending on the type of wood used, these houses are affected by varying
climatic conditions.
Metal: Metals are also among the commonly used building materials. Huge
mansions and offices built of metals are strong and last for a life time. Today
most of the constructions are done in metal to retain its elegance and strength.
Granite: Being one of the hardest materials available for constructing walls,
floors and kitchen accessories, this stone has been in use since ancient times.
granite countertops are among the most preferred material for kitchen
countertop. Its durability and opulence are the main reasons why it is chosen
by most of the people to decorate their homes.
The other advantages of this stone are that it is highly heat resistant and can
be cleaned easily. It does not retain any stains and bacteria. Though it is a bit
expensive, it is indeed an investment which last for a life time.
Apart from these there are many more building materials used in the modern
times like non shrink grouts, multi wall panel, steel roof drain, crushed stones,
wall putty, insulation products and so forth. Brass materials are also used for
construction purposes.
Today the business of building materials has flourished with the increase in
constructions of houses, factories, industries and offices. New products are
available in the online stores at affordable rates. In addition to construction
materials you can even find flooring materials which are quite versatile.
Marbles, tiles, granite in unimaginable sizes and designs are obtained from the
online markets. By logging on to a good website, you can find materials for
your new home and office.

These are some problems to look for when using old tools:
Old tools may not be safe to use if they lack up-to-date safety features, such as
a switch that stops the operation when pressure on the switch is released.
Read and follow your power tool operator’s manual for tips on proper use,
maintenance, and general safety precautions. Don’t forget to use safety
eyewear, gloves, and other recommended personal protective equipment for the
specific tool.
Never attempt to use an ax with the handle taped on, or a power drill with
exposed wires in the cord. Remember that your safety is worth much more
than the money you would save by using defective tools.
Think twice before giving away defective tools. The next person who tries to use
them may not realize they are unsafe. Don’t pass on a problem that might
make you feel partly responsible for an injury or death.
Improperly stored material can shift or topple over, causing potentially serious
injuries. Sound storage practices required by OSHA include:
Stacking bricks in piles no more than seven feet high, with every layer
above four feet tapered back two inches for every foot. While masonry blocks
can be stacked in taller piles, but contractors should also taper the piles above
the six foot mark.
Limiting stacks of lumber to 20 feet high (16 feet if workers will handle
lumber without machines) in stable piles on level sills that provide good
support. Prior to stacking, remove all used nails.
Keeping materials more than six feet from hoistways.
Not storing materials in floor openings.
Storing materials more than 10 feet from an exterior wall that is shorter
than the top of the pile.
Not storing materials on scaffolds or runways unless the contractor is
about to use them.
In the hurry to get the job done, workers often dispose of construction debris in
unsafe ways, such as tossing pieces of lumber off the side of the building. This
risks injury to anyone standing below. Contractors should follow these
guidelines for proper waste disposal:
Remove all scrap, especially combustible materials, as it accumulates
instead of letting it pile up. However, do not remove it until workers are certain
that the people working over their heads are finished tossing it to the ground.
Use an enclosed chute to drop debris from the higher points of the
building.
Barricade areas where workers will drop debris without using a chute.
Use separate containers for materials covered with oil or flammable
liquids.
