1 Pipefitting Level 2 - International Competen nce: Engineering Construction (Red Card) OCCUPATION PROFILE PIPEFITTER The occupation of Pipefitter consists of the positioning, assembly, fabrication, maintenance and repairs of piping systems. With a sound knowledge, understanding and application of techniques and equipment the pipefitter is also able to assist in the design and specification of new piping systems and their layout. This includes providing technical advice on material selection, pipe stress analysis, piping material line classes, standard s and speciality piping components, and pressure and piping support systems. Engineering construction industry piping systems may carry water, w steam, chemicals or fuel which may be used in cooling, heating, lubricating and other processes. The piping can vary in bore and material type dependent upon the fluid it is designed to carryy and the operating pressures of these systems. These system requirements also a determine the method of jointing required within the piping system and the Pipefitter must ensure the integrity of joints that are made. Methods of jointing can range from threaded and a bolted solutions to, where required, a more permanent welded joint. INTERNATIONAL COMPETENCE: ENGINEERING-CONSTRUCTION (ICE) SCHEME ICE Validates knowledge and skills against ECITB Standards ensuring e people working in the engineering-construction industries are technically competent. ICEE recognises the importance of continuous training/assessment through the ICE renewal process. The ICE Level 2 Framework defines the skills and job knowledge required to work in an Engineering-Construction environment. ICE Level 2 At ECITB ICE level 2 the individual is typically tasked with routine pipefitting activities such as; Shape engineering construction pipework components using hand tools. Support the assembly of engineering construction pipework components to meet specification. Support the positioning and installation of engineering constructionc n pipework. All activities at this level will be in accordance with thee approvedd procedures, test specifications, maintenance scheduless and all other relevant international/approved standards. Additionally all tasking and subsequent activitiess will be performed under the direct supervision of a suitably qualified and experienced person. Page 1 of 5

2 COMPONENTS OF ICE LEVEL 2 PIPEFITTING To achieve the ICE Level 2 Award candidates must successfully completee the following: ECITB International Health and Safety Passport (IHSP) Foundation A minimum of 2 Pipefitting Skill Specific Technical Tests T (Levell 2) A minimum of 2 Skill Specific Technical Tests (Level 2) ECITB International Health and Safetyy Passport (IHSP) - Foundation The aims of the ECITB IHSP scheme are to ensure that all site s personnel worldwide have reached a recognised level of Health and Safety knowledge and a awareness and to enable them to work on site more safely, reducing the health and safety s risk to themselves and others around them. To ensure individuals reach the requiredd level of Health and Safety knowledge, all delegates on each of the courses MUST successfully complete the necessary training programme, which in all casess includes at least one examination. Successful candidates will then be rewarded by being issued their unique IHSP photographic passport, transferable worldwide. Pipefitting Skill Specific Technical Tests (Level 2) To achieve the ICE Level 2 award candidates must successfully completee a Minimumm of 2 of the Pipefitting Skill Specific Technical Tests listed on page 3. Skill Specific Technical Tests (Level 2) To achieve the ICE Level 2 award candidates must successfully complete a Minimum of 2 Skill Specific Technical Tests listed on pages 3, 4 and 5. Relevant ECITB TECHNICAL TRAINING UNITS are availablee for candidates to attain skills required to undertake the ECITB Technical Tests ICE LEVEL 2 VALIDITY & RENEWALL Validity Upon successful completion of the appropriate ICE Technical Tests a candidate will receive an ICE card, whichh will be valid for 3 years Renewal The ICE renewal process assures a candidate s knowledge, skills and ability are maintained in line with evolving processes and technical requirements. The T renewal process requires each candidate already holding an ICE card to successfully complete a knowledge only test after 3 years. The test must be taken no sooner than 3 months prior to the expiry date on the card and no later than 3 months after the date. Failure to complete the test within this 6 month window will render the ICE card invalid and necessitate full completion once more of all tests. Page 2 of 5

3 PIPEFITTING SKILL SPECIFIC TECHNICAL TESTS (LEVEL 2) TIPF 01 Setting Out Pipework and Marking Out The test assesses if a candidate can set out and mark pipework configurations using marking out and measuring equipment for the fabrication of a mitre bend, produce a template for marking out a lateral branch and mark out branch and header pipes as per the drawing TIPF 03 Preparing Pipe Ends using Portable Edge Preparation Machines The test assesses if a candidate can use portable preparation machines to prepare pipe ends for welding, chamfering the pipe end to a specified angle and within set dimensions TIPF 11 Preparing and Assembling Screwed Pipework The test assesses if a candidate can use the appropriate tools and equipment to fabricate and assemble a steel pipe section with screwed fittings and flanges to a specified drawing and within set tolerances ECITB INTERNATIONAL APPRENTICESHIP - PIPEFITTING To achieve an ECITB International Apprenticeship in Pipefitting at Level 2, two more Skill Specific Technical Tests (Level 2) must be completed in addition to the minimum two Pipefitting Skill Specific Technical Tests (Level 2) and two Skill Specific Technical Tests (Level 2). This brings the total requirement to six Level 2 Technical Tests. A full list of all other Skill Specific Technical Tests (Level 2) is included below.
