The Red Seal Ironworker (Generalist) case studies are 6 cases and about 1,357 words.
1Re-establishing a displaced column template
An anchor template has been assembled with the correct internal bolt spacing, but a survey check shows that the whole template is displaced from its intended grid position. One temporary control mark has been damaged by equipment movement.
225 words, about 1 min2An off-centre equipment lift
A lifting plan treats an equipment package as a six-thousand-kilogram load supported at two points four metres apart. Its stated centre of gravity is one metre from the left point, so the vertical shares are not equal.

A beam cage matches the scheduled bar marks, but a newly coordinated service opening conflicts with several bars. The outer ties are close to the form, and the crew cannot maintain the specified clear cover if it moves all the longitudinal bars toward one side.
225 words, about 1 min4A tendon stressing discrepancy
A post-tensioning crew has recorded the concrete strength acceptance for the planned operation and identified the scheduled stressing sequence. During one tendon operation, the gauge reaches the target pressure, but the measured elongation is outside the project's accepted range.
218 words, about 1 min5An architectural movement joint and a bolted connection
A cladding support assembly has a fixed bracket and a designated sliding interface to accommodate movement. The erection crew finds that the sliding part is awkward to align and proposes welding it rigidly once the panel is in position.
