Pipefitting technician

Pipefitting technician

Pipe fitting is the occupation of installing or repairing piping or tubing systems that convey liquid and gasses for industrial production systems.  This work involves lay out, assemble, selecting and preparing pipe or tubing when joining it together by various means, and the location and repair of leaks. Pipe fitting also involves inspection or testing installed systems or pipe lines, using pressure gauges and hydrostatic tests. Skills to measure and mark pipes for cutting or threading will be required to install pipe lines on structures, with related materials such as supports, hangers or hydraulic cylinders according to specifications.

 

Educational/vocational objectives

The expected pipefitting craft educational/vocational objectives are that, upon completing all training courses, the trainee will be able to:

  • Lay out, assemble, install, or maintain pipe systems, pipe supports, or related hydraulic or pneumatic equipment for steam, hot water, heating, cooling, lubricating, sprinkling, or industrial production or processing systems.
  • Plan pipe system layout, installation, or repair, according to specifications.
  • Inspect, examine, or test installed systems or pipe lines, using pressure gauge, hydrostatic testing, observation, or other methods.
  • Select pipe sizes, types, or related materials, such as supports, hangers, or hydraulic cylinders, according to specifications.
  • Measure and mark pipes for cutting or threading.
