Boilermaker and the Code
Boilermaking is pressure work, which means the code is not paperwork sitting beside the job: it is the job. This path covers the vessels and boilers themselves, the welding qualification system that lets you put metal in them, the testing that proves the work, the confined space and hot work rules that keep you alive inside them, and the code and inspection world (ASME stamps, the National Board, authorized inspectors) that decides whether any of it counts.
