Training in mathematics and layout work including template making. Use of fabrication tools such as tee squares, levels, tape measurers, flange alignment pins, pipe protractors and others. Welding training in SMAW, GMAW & GTAW and other welding processes used in fabrication of pipe and vessels. Identification of material such as fittings, flanges and pipe by matching them with the appropriate MTR’s. Knowledge of different types of valves and their specific installation functions and uses. Excellent blueprint reading skills including piping plan drawings, P&IDs and isometric drawings and how to apply them using client specifications to minimize fabrication and installation errors. Also capable of drawing piping spools and diagrams as needed. MECHANICAL FABRICATION – Built equipment such as pressure vessels, specialized filter systems, gas fired furnaces and heaters and other specialized equipment. Also fabrication of piping that is connected to compressors, pumps, blowers and other rotating equipment where alignment and fit-up are critical to their operation and performance. SUPERVISORY & MANAGEMENT – Supervised in the fabrication of skid-mounted high density HDPE units as well as other smaller skid-mounted piping systems for various clients. By working closely with the client was able to prioritize fabrication assembly to meet delivery schedules. All other supervisory skills are listed in job history.
