Conduct Roller Operations

This nationally recognised unit, RIIMPO317 Conduct roller operations, provides the skills and knowledge required to safely operate a roller in civil construction environments.

This unit may be completed as a standalone course or combined with other selected civil construction units.

Training covers planning and preparing for roller operations, pre-start and operational checks, working safely around site hazards and services, operating the roller to compact materials to the required pattern and density, finishing work, shutdown and site clean-up activities.

Course Delivery

Training is delivered through a combination of:

• prescribed pre-course learning
• trainer-led face-to-face training and practical activities
• practical training using a roller
• theory and practical assessment

Pre-course learning is completed before attending the practical training component and prepares learners for the face-to-face training and assessment activities.

Assessment

Assessment includes knowledge questions and practical demonstration of roller operations. Learners are required to demonstrate safe operation on at least two occasions, including working with different material types and completing the required compaction, finishing and operational activities.

Outcome

On successful completion, learners receive a Statement of Attainment (SOA) for RIIMPO317 Conduct roller operations.
