Ce que tu vas apprendre

The program of study Tinsmithing prepares students for the profession of tinsmith. Tinsmiths work on construction sites in the following sectors: institutional and commercial, industrial, residential, civil engineering and roads. However, work in the institutional and commercial sector accounts for the largest number of workers. As part of their duties, tinsmiths cut, shape, assemble and weld different types of tinsmithing products. They install prefabricated metal objects, wall cladding, heritage roofs and modern roofing, as well as air treatment, heat recovery and exhaust systems. They are also responsible for fabricating parts manufactured mainly from sheet metal, profiles, and similar materials. Work is usually carried out in teams in accordance with the plans, specifications and standards in force. Tinsmiths use bench tools, access equipment, handling and hoisting equipment, as well as cutting, shaping, and welding equipment to perform their duties. They also use measuring and tracing instruments to draw sketches and patterns for parts. People practicing this profession must have good manual dexterity and physical stamina. They must be able to work at heights. Adherence to health and safety regulations and measures is prevalent and integral to the trade.

Le métier, en bref

Les ferblantiers et ferblantières fabriquent, assemblent et installent des éléments de ferblanterie en tôle et en métal sur les chantiers de construction. À partir de plans, de croquis et de patrons, ils découpent, façonnent, plient et assemblent des pièces métalliques à l’aide d’outils manuels et de machines-outils de coupe et de façonnage. Ils installent notamment des revêtements métalliques, des parements muraux, des éléments de toiture ainsi que des composantes de systèmes de traitement de l’air, de récupération et d’évacuation. Le travail s’effectue principalement sur des chantiers institutionnels, commerciaux et industriels, dans le respect des normes de santé et de sécurité. Le métier de ferblantier exige de la précision, de la minutie et une bonne dextérité manuelle. Il convient aux personnes autonomes, capables de travailler en équipe, à l’aise en hauteur et possédant une bonne capacité à lire des plans, à se repérer dans l’espace et à effectuer des calculs liés au travail du métal.
