You will interact with planners, supervisors, inspectors, designers, welders, fitters, riggers and many others involved in manufacturing, production, maintenance and repair.
Fabrication or welding work can include manufacturing of bridges, ships aircraft, machinery parts, cranes and anything that can be fabricated out of metal. Fabricators can work alone or in teams, in factories or on operational sites. They are responsible for the quality and accuracy of their work.
