Metal Fabricator
Steel structures are crucial in all areas of construction, from the buildings themselves to the tower cranes needed to assemble them. You will need to understand how the different types of steel need to be used, and how to cut, join, and weld them both in engineering workshops and on site.
For the metal fabricator, that means being able to understand engineering drawings and then building the actual structure accurately.
This WorldSkills UK competition focuses on all the essential requirements for a successful career as a metalwork specialist in the engineering industry. The competition has been designed to reflect the role of an advanced metal fabricator and meet industry standards.
