Key Responsibilities 1. Steel Framework Assembly: Erect steel columns, beams, girders, and trusses according to engineering drawings and specifications. Bolt, weld, or rivet steel components into place. Ensure structures are plumb, level, and aligned. 2. Blueprint Interpretation: Read and interpret technical drawings, plans, and CAD models to guide assembly. 3. Equipment Operation: Operate cranes, hoists, and other machinery to lift and position steel components. Use hand and power tools (e.g., spud wrenches, torque wrenches, welding equipment). 4. Safety Compliance: Follow strict health and safety protocols, including working at height regulations (e.g., harnesses, scaffolding, mobile elevated work platforms). Conduct risk assessments and adhere to CDM (Construction Design and Management) regulations. 5. Collaboration: Work alongside site managers, welders, crane operators, and other trades. Report progress or issues to supervisors. 6. Quality Control: Inspect steel components for defects or damage before installation. Ensure compliance with British/European steel construction standards (e.g., BS EN 1090). Skills and Qualifications 1. Certifications: CPCS (Construction Plant Competence Scheme) or NPORS (National Plant Operators Registration Scheme) card for operating cranes or lifting equipment. CSCS Card (Construction Skills Certification Scheme) – often mandatory for site access. Welding certifications (e.g., coded welder status) if required for the role. 2. Experience: Prior experience in steel erection, construction, or structural engineering. Familiarity with steel grades, connection types (bolted vs. welded), and load-bearing principles 3. CIS payed
