Use a tape measure accurately to mark, measure, and verify dimensions for fabrication and assembly work. Operate and handle a variety of hand and power tools safely and efficiently as part of construction and assembly tasks. Participate in the assembly and erection of steel and other structural components as directed by site leadership. Follow construction plans and basic blueprints under guidance to complete tasks in line with project specifications. Work 8-hour days during the initial phase and transition to 12-hour days as the project progresses, maintaining reliability and punctuality. Adhere to all site safety rules, including use of required personal protective equipment and safe work practices.
