ornamental-metal-worker Occupational skill for the role 'ornamental metal worker' (also: precision structural steel fitter, welder fabricator, welder fabricator installer, structural and ornamental metalwork steel fabricator, structural and ornamental metalwork metal fabricator, precision structural metal fitter). Use when the user asks for typical ornamental metal worker work such as: Read specifications or blueprints to determine the locations, quantities, or sizes of materials required.; Verify vertical and horizontal alignment of structural steel members, using plumb bobs, laser equipment, transits, or levels.; Connect columns, beams, and girders with bolts, following blueprints and instructions from supervisors.

Ornamental Metal Worker

Ornamental metal workers use finishing equipment and machinery to shape and finish fabricated ornamental metal workpieces, often used for the installation process in construction, such as railings, staircases, open steel flooring, fences and gates, and others.

Core workflow

  1. Read specifications or blueprints to determine the locations, quantities, or sizes of materials required.
  2. Verify vertical and horizontal alignment of structural steel members, using plumb bobs, laser equipment, transits, or levels.
  3. Connect columns, beams, and girders with bolts, following blueprints and instructions from supervisors.
  4. Bolt aligned structural steel members in position for permanent riveting, bolting, or welding into place.
  5. Fabricate metal parts, such as steel frames, columns, beams, or girders, according to blueprints or instructions from supervisors.
  6. Pull, push, or pry structural steel members into approximate positions for bolting into place.
  7. Cut, bend, or weld steel pieces, using metal shears, torches, or welding equipment.
  8. Fasten structural steel members to hoist cables, using chains, cables, or rope.
