They manipulate pipes by hand, with tools, and with machinery. They apply their pipe system knowledge and blueprint reading capability to select pipe size and type. They also select other related equipment and materials such as pipe supports, hangars, and support systems according to required specifications.

Understanding both the big picture and the small details of pipe systems is crucial for plumbers, pipefitters, and steam fitters.
