• Steamfitter-pipefitters. If steamfitter-pipefitters know anything, it’s how to get pipe laid. They are the people who plan, layout, assemble, and install piping systems. They work all over the place: in oil refineries, pulp and paper mills, food and beverage manufacturing, and even nuclear power plants.
• Plumbers. Plumbers get things moving. They are responsible for the assembly, installation, and maintenance of piping systems. With pipes in pretty well everything, you better believe plumbers are prized members of any construction project.
• Instrumentation technicians and mechanics. Working in fields like pulp and paper, nuclear and hydropower, mining, petrochemical and natural gas, instrumentation technicians and mechanics service pretty well all the equipment. So you can imagine they’re pretty handy to have around.
• Sprinklerfitters. Where there’s smoke, there’s no fire, because a sprinklerfitter has equipped that building with a sprinkler system to put it out.
• HVACR Mechanics. Even when things are heating up, HVACR Mechanics keep it cool. Very cool. They work on air conditioning systems for all sorts of buildings, not to mention in high voltage electrical components, gas piping installations, and more.
• Welders. Welders are the people who make all the pieces fit together, and make sure they stay that way. Working on plants, tanks, buildings, and vessels of all shapes and sizes, welders play an important role in keeping what’s in the pipe safely where it should be.
