Connect columns, beams, and girders with bolts, following blueprints and instructions from supervisors.

Unload and position prefabricated steel units for hoisting as needed.

Dismantle structures or equipment.

Ride on girders or other structural steel members to position them or use rope to guide them into position.

Place blocks under reinforcing bars used to reinforce floors.

Cut, bend, or weld steel pieces, using metal shears, torches, or welding equipment.

Hold rivets while riveters use air hammers to form heads on rivets.

Pull, push, or pry structural steel members into approximate positions for bolting into place.

Fasten structural steel members to hoist cables, using chains, cables, or rope.

Drive drift pins through rivet holes to align rivet holes in structural steel members with corresponding holes in previously placed members.

Assemble hoisting equipment or rigging, such as cables, pulleys, or hooks, to move heavy equipment or materials.

Insert sealing strips, wiring, insulating material, ladders, flanges, gauges, or valves, depending on types of structures being assembled.

Read specifications or blueprints to determine the locations, quantities, or sizes of materials required.

Bolt aligned structural steel members in position for permanent riveting, bolting, or welding into place.

Erect metal or precast concrete components for structures, such as buildings, bridges, dams, towers, storage tanks, fences, or highway guard rails.

Force structural steel members into final positions, using turnbuckles, crowbars, jacks, or hand tools.

Fabricate metal parts, such as steel frames, columns, beams, or girders, according to blueprints or instructions from supervisors.

Verify vertical and horizontal alignment of structural steel members, using plumb bobs, laser equipment, transits, or levels.
