CARPENTER: A carpenter constructs, erects,
installs, and repairs structures and fixtures made
from wood, metal and other materials. Carpenters are
involved in many different kinds of construction, from
the building of highways, bridges, houses, schools,
hospitals and commercial buildings. Each carpentry
task is somewhat different, but most involve the same
basic steps. Working from blueprints or instructions from
supervisors, carpenters first do the layout—measuring,
marking, and arranging materials—in accordance with
local building codes. They cut and shape wood, metal,
plastic, fiberglass, or drywall using hand and power
tools, such as chisels, planes, saws, drills, and sanders.
They then join the materials with nails, screws, staples,
or adhesives. In the last step, carpenters do a final

Architecture is a business in which technical knowledge,

Construction Manager Functions
The functions of construction project management
typically include the following:
1. Specifying project objectives and plans including
delineation of scope, budgeting, scheduling, setting
performance requirements, and selecting project
participants.
2. Maximizing resource efficiency through procurement
of labor, materials and equipment.
3. Implementing various operations through proper

The academic field of construction management
encompasses a wide range of topics. These range
from general management skills, to management
skills specifically related to construction, to technical
knowledge of construction methods and practices.

Education and Training: A majority of HVAC technicians receive their training from community colleges, technical or trade schools, or the United States armed forces. Training can take between 6 months to 2 years from each element of study (heating, air conditioning, refrigeration). Standards for HVAC training are set by three accrediting organizations. These agencies are HVAC Excellence, the National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER), and the Partnership for Air Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Accreditation (PHARA). Apprenticeships are another route an HVAC technician can take. An apprenticeship will usually run between 3 and 5 years, and require a qualified mentor. Apprentices need a high school diploma at the least. An apprenticeship will combine hands-on learning of at least 2,000 clock hours per year and 144 clock hours of classroom instruction. After completion, an apprentice will be considered a skilled trade’s worker. IRONWORKER: An ironworker is a tradesman (man or woman) who works in the ironworking industry. Ironworkers erect (or even dismantle) the structural steel and bridges.

MASON: A mason undergoes comprehensive
training, both in the classroom and in the working
environment. Hands-on skill is complemented by
intimate knowledge of each stone type, its application
and best uses, and how to work and fix each stone

to carry out one or all of the various branches of
stonemasonry. In some areas the trend is towards
specialization, in other areas towards adaptability.
Masons use all types of natural stone: igneous,

location. Wages of construction workers often are affected when poor weather prevents them from working. Traditionally, winter
is the slack period for construction activity, especially in colder parts of the country, but there is a trend toward more year-round
construction, even in colder areas.

The demand for construction science professionals is growing in Arizona. Construction trades are dependent on one another to
complete specific parts of a project—especially on large projects—so a lack of workers in one trade can delay or stop the work of
