VI (I). THE PROFESSION OF A BUILDER
The building profession attracts many young men and women nowadays. In our country housing construction is carried out on a large scale. Hundreds of factories produce prefab panels. Builders construct and reconstruct residential and industrial buildings, bridges, schools, palaces of culture, etc. They build tunnels, canals, power stations, dams and reservoirs. They also construct aqueducts to store and transport water for populated areas and to irrigate desert lands. The distribution of water in irrigated areas is based on annual plans. Very many irrigation systems are built and modernized. Hydro-technicians erect dams, reservoirs and pumping stations. Builders and engineers design and erect houses, schools, factories and other buildings. Builders, as we know, assemble a house from prefabricated units which are delivered to the construction site. A welder then welds the units. Builders use building equipment and operate it by electricity¹ or compressed air. Powerful cranes lift heavy building materials and the workers put them into position. Nowadays builders use a great variety of materials. Civil engineers and architects have a common aim - to provide people with all modern conveniences, such as running water, gas, electricity, central heating.
