Glass construction technology could be for you if you like:

Glass serves many uses in modern life. Insulated and specially treated glass retains inside warmed or cooled air and provides condensation and sound control. Tempered and laminated glass makes doors and windows more secure. In large commercial buildings, glass panels give office buildings a distinctive look while reducing the need for artificial lighting. The creative use of large windows, glass doors, skylights, and sunroom additions makes homes bright, airy, and inviting.

Glass Construction Technicians select, cut, assemble, install, remove, and replace all kinds of glass. In a shop setting, Glaziers build metal sashes and mouldings using aluminium or steel framing. The metal is cut and shaped for storefront facings; entrances in commercial, office, and
factory buildings; and glass doors, windows and glass objects of all types. At a construction site, Glass Construction Technicians attach the formed metal moldings to the building. The job is finished by fitting in the glass. If necessary, they attach face moldings, weather seals, or hardware; and adjust door or window operation. Less skill is required of Glass Construction Technicians who install prefabricated glass products that are increasingly used in building construction. Although some Glass Construction Technicians may specialize in jobs such as installation of tub or shower doors, many learn to handle all the different types of glass installation and the special problems presented by each.

In addition to hand tools such as glass cutters, suction cups, and glazing knives, Glaziers use power tools such as saws, drills, cutters, and grinders. Already many Glass Construction Technicians use computer controlled machines in the shop or at the job site to improve their layout
work and reduce the amount of wasted glass.
