Pipe Joining, Threading, Bending and Fixing Techniques & Plumbing Tools, Materials and Pipe Fittings
Assemble a 6-joint GI line using tees, elbows and a union, applying jointing compound or PTFE tape correctly and tightening to a leak-free state
Join a PVC line with solvent cement, describing surface preparation, cement application and curing time before pressure testing
Compare compression, push-fit and solvent-weld joints on cost, skill needed and repairability, and pick the right one for three given site situations
Identify the common causes of joint failure (over-tightening, dirty threads, wrong cement, no primer) and state the correction for each
Read a fitting catalogue page and extract size, pressure class and end connection for five fittings
Your checkpoint
One assembled practice manifold of at least 6 joints that holds 1.5 times working pressure for 30 minutes with no visible leak, plus a short note on each joint type used
Sanitary Drainage, Soil, Waste and Vent Systems & Sanitary Fixtures, Fittings and Appliance Installation
Draw a single-line diagram of a two-storey house drainage system showing soil pipe, waste pipe, vent stack, trap and inspection chamber
Distinguish soil, waste and vent pipes by function and state the minimum diameter rule for each in a small dwelling
Explain the purpose of a water seal and a trap, and calculate the trap seal depth needed to resist siphonage in a given layout
Describe the causes of self-siphonage, induced siphonage and back pressure, and list three layout changes that prevent them
State the slope requirements for a 100 mm and a 50 mm drain branch and show the fall over a 6 m run
Your checkpoint
A hand-drawn drainage and vent layout for a two-storey house with every pipe labelled by type, diameter, slope and vent connection
Water Supply Systems, Storage and Distribution & Sanitary Fixtures, Fittings and Appliance Installation
Trace the path of water from overhead tank to a tap, naming every component (ferrule, ball valve, distribution pipe, stop cock, tap) in order
Size a distribution branch for two bathrooms and one kitchen using fixture unit counts and a standard pipe sizing table
Explain direct and indirect (pumped and gravity) supply systems and choose the right one for a two-storey home with low mains pressure
Install and adjust a float valve in a storage tank and set the overflow and washout arrangement correctly
Position and fix a wash basin, water closet and kitchen sink at correct heights and with correct trap and connection points
Your checkpoint
A water supply schematic plus a fixture installation checklist covering 3 fixtures with mounting heights, connection sizes and valve positions
Water Supply Systems, Storage and Distribution & Sanitary Drainage, Soil, Waste and Vent Systems
Calculate storage tank capacity for a family of five using per-capita demand and one day of backup
Design a venting arrangement for a bathroom group and check each fixture trap against the vent distance limit
Explain how an inspection chamber, gully trap and intercepting trap fit into a house-to-sewer connection and sketch the sequence
Identify the causes of foul smell, gurgling and slow drainage in a given layout and propose a fix for each
State the testing procedure for a drainage line (water test and air test) and the acceptance criteria
Your checkpoint
A combined supply-and-drainage design sheet for one house, including tank capacity calculation, vent distances checked against limits, and the test method to be used
Plumbing Drawing, Estimation, Costing and Material Take-off & Occupational Safety, Health and Hygiene in Plumbing Work
Draw a plan and an isometric of a toilet and bathroom showing pipe routes, sizes and fixture positions to a stated scale
Take off quantities from your own drawing for pipe, fittings, valves and fixtures, and prepare a priced bill of quantities
Estimate labour and material cost for a bathroom plumbing job and add a realistic overhead and profit margin
List the personal protective equipment needed for threading, solvent welding, working at height and confined space entry, and state when each is mandatory
Describe safe handling and storage of PVC solvent cement, LPG torch work and pipe-cutting tools, and state the first-aid step for cement in the eye
Your checkpoint
A complete estimate package for one bathroom: scaled drawing, material take-off table, priced BOQ and a one-page safety plan for the job
Maintenance, Repair, Leak Detection and Testing of Installations & Occupational Safety, Health and Hygiene in Plumbing Work
Perform a pressure test on a small line at 1.5 times working pressure, record the gauge reading over 30 minutes and interpret any drop
Locate a simulated concealed leak using acoustic and isolation methods and record the method that worked
Write a repair procedure for a leaking GI threaded joint, a cracked PVC socket and a dripping float valve
Describe the safe procedure for entering a manhole or septic tank, including gas testing, ventilation and standby person duties
Prepare a preventive maintenance schedule for a household plumbing system covering tanks, valves, traps and exposed pipes
Your checkpoint
A leak-detection and repair report on two simulated faults, with test readings, method used, repair steps and a preventive maintenance schedule
Employability Skills, Entrepreneurship and Workplace Practice & Plumbing Drawing, Estimation, Costing and Material Take-off & Maintenance, Repair, Leak Detection and Testing of Installations
