REINFORCED CONCRETE                            

IRON WORKERS

 

 

Rodworkers place reinforced steel an steel mats in foundations, pans, pads and forms before

Concrete is poured. Work is done on highways, bridges, airports, sewage plants and foundations for commercial and industrial projects.

 

Placing reinforcement steel is very active and strenuous work. There is much carrying, bending, walking and prolonged standing. Some working at heights is required.

 

Rodworkers must be able to work under close supervision and with others as a team. They must be aware of the dangers around them and assume responsibility for co-workers.
