About this course
This self-paced online course provides practical knowledge and techniques for marking out structural fabrications and irregular shapes used in construction, engineering, and metal fabrication. Accurate marking is essential to ensure that large components like beams, channels, pipes, and plates are cut, formed, and assembled to specification.
Ideal for structural fabricators, boilermakers, apprentices, and workshop assistants, this course builds core skills to support precision and efficiency in structural engineering environments.
