Additional information
Unit content:This unit aims to familiarise students with industrial practice, the focus being on project management and risk estimation techniques. The aim is to gain experience with the Australian Standards 60079 series of documents and understand their application and limitations when applied to engineering design and operational activities. You will learn to classify hazardous areas in industrial plants using a suite of “safety in design” methods along with organisation and interpretation of periodic inspections.
