Objectifs du programme

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.

Tinsmithing

Les ferblantiers et les ferblantiers découpent, façonnent et assemblent des pièces de métal. Ils opèrent des machines-outils conventionnelles ou à commande numérique. Ils installent des recouvrements de toiture en métal et montent, installent et réparent des systèmes de climatisation, de ventilation, de chauffage à air chaud, d’évaporation de liquide ou de gaz, etc. C’est un métier gratifiant qui convient aux personnes minutieuses, inventives et dotées d’une bonne dextérité manuelle. Un emploi dans la construction à titre de ferblantier réclame de l’autonomie, une faciliter à s’orienter dans l’espace et des aptitudes en calcul et en dessin.
