Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
A civil engineering construction technician responsible for properly compacting concrete placed in formwork using a concrete vibrator (vibrator).
Description
A concrete pressure welding worker is a specialist technician who operates vibratory compaction machines (vibrators) or external vibrators after concrete placement to uniformly compact the concrete inside formwork. If proper densification is not achieved, it can lead to reduced strength, cracking, and decreased durability, so it is essential to reliably remove air bubbles and voids. On site, they collaborate with formwork carpenters, reinforcing bar workers, and concrete placement workers, while thoroughly managing safety and quality control during operations.
Future Outlook
Stable demand is expected due to ongoing infrastructure development and renewal needs. On the other hand, there is a possibility of advancing mechanization and automation technologies.
