Summary
A construction worker who assembles and erects steel structures, responsible for ensuring safety and efficient operations at heights.
Description
Steel Frame Tobi Workers are responsible for assembling and erecting steel structures for buildings and bridges. They guide ropes to control steel members lifted by cranes, support bolt joining or welding, and secure them accurately. Since work is performed at heights, prioritizing safety with safety belts and scaffolding installation is paramount, and teamwork is essential. Before work, they confirm drawings and procedures, and create work plans considering loads and balance. In recent years, efforts are being made to improve safety and efficiency through construction simulations using BIM/CIM and the adoption of ICT.
