Occupations | Lays out metal stock or workpieces, such as castings, plates, or machine parts, to indicate location, dimensions, and tolerances necessary for further processing, such as machining, welding, or assembly, analyzing specifications and computing dimensions according to knowledge of product, subsequent processing, shop mathematics, and layout procedures: Studies blueprint, sketch, model, or other specifications and plans layout. Examines workpiece and verifies such requirements as dimensions and squareness, using rule, square, and straightedge. Lifts and positions workpiece in relation to surface plate manually or with hoist, using such work aids as shims, parallel blocks, and angle plates. Verifies position with measuring instruments, such as gauge blocks, height gauges, and dial indicators. Determines reference points and computes layout dimensions. Sets indicators on height gauge, protractor, or $T3layout machine$T1 to computed dimensions, or projects dimensions by setting indicators to specified locations on model and moving instrument or machine so that indicators bear on corresponding locations on workpiece. Indents layout points, using prick punch, center punch, and hammer. Marks or scribes layout lines, using handtools and work aids, such as surface gauge, straightedge, compasses, templates, and scriber. Marks such data as dimensions, instructions, and part identification on workpiece. Works to tolerances as close as plus 0.001 inch. May position model in parallel relationship to workpiece. May apply pigment to layout surfaces, using paint brush. May inspect machined parts to verify conformance to specifications. May add dimensional details to blueprints or prepare dimensional drawings to be followed by other workers. May layout sheet metal or plate steel, applying specialized knowledge of sheet metal layout geometry [SHEET-METAL LAY-OUT WORKER (any industry)]. (references) |
| Inspects castings, forgings, or wax patterns of castings for conformance to blueprints by laying out reference lines and points, and measuring dimensions, using surface plate, precision measuring instruments, and layout procedures: Analyzes blueprint and examines casting to determine reference points for layout. Applies blue pigment or whitewash to layout surface on casting, using rag or brush. Positions casting on surface plate, using parallel bars, angle plates, dial indicator, gauge blocks, V-blocks, shims, and vernier height gauge, to establish reference points for measuring. Computes layout dimensions relative to reference points, using shop mathematics. Marks and scribes reference lines and points on casting and measures dimensions, using instruments, such as micrometer, protractor, combination square, vernier height gauge, and $T3layout machine.$T1 Records location and extent of defect in rejected casting. May inspect metal equipment used in production of casting to determine source of error. (references) | |
| Lays out settings and mounts stones in jewelry mounting, following specifications: Compares mounting with design to determine position of settings. Marks and drills holes in mountings to center stones according to design specifications. Decorates raised portions of metal, using engravers' tools. Positions mountings in sandblasting machine to clean and sharpen design preparatory to further processing. May modify existing mountings to reposition jewels [STONE SETTER (jewelry-silver.; optical goods)]. (references) | |
| Lays out wall, ceiling, and floor panels to facilitate fabrication of modular homes: Reads production schedule and observes drawings to determine style of panels to be assembled and to determine materials required. Lays out materials, such as studs, joists, and headers of designated dimensions on worktable, using tape measure. Assist in assembly of panels, using nailing gun. (references) | |
