Welding & Machine Trades
Welding is a skill used by many trades: sheet
metal workers, ironworkers, diesel mechanics,
boilermakers, carpenters, marine construction,
steamfitters, glaziers, repair and maintenance
personnel in applications ranging from the home
hobbyist to heavy fabrication of bridges, ships and
many other projects. A variety of welding
processes are used to join units of metal. As a
welder, you may work for shipyards,
manufacturers, contractors, federal, state, county, and city governments,
firms requiring maintenance mechanics, and repair shops.
Welding, while very physically demanding, can be very rewarding for
those who enjoy working with their hands. Welders need good eyesight,
manual dexterity and hand-eye coordination. They should also be able to
concentrate for long periods of time on very detailed work, as well as be in
good enough physical shape to bend and stoop, often holding awkward
positions for long periods of time. Welders work in a variety of
environments, both indoors and out, using heat to melt and fuse separate
pieces of metal together. Training and skill levels can vary, with a few weeks
of school or on-the-job training for the lowest level job and several years of
school and experience for the more skilled welding positions.
Skilled welders often select and set up the welding equipment, execute
the weld, and then examine the welds in order to make sure they meet the
appropriate specifications. They may also be trained to work in a variety of
materials, such as plastic, titanium or aluminum. Those with less training
perform more routine tasks, such as the welds on jobs that have already been
laid out, and are not able to work with as many different materials.
