Objectifs du programme

The Preparing and Finishing Concrete program aims to train students to set up, finish and protect cement surfaces. Concrete workers work with a variety of types of surfaces and vertical and horizontal structures, such as, floors, walls, sidewalks, pavements, curbs, stairways, dams, bridges and concrete tunnels. Furthermore, concrete workers apply texture, chisel, grind, and cure finished concrete and repair and restore damamged concrete. Cement workors apply different finishes to concrete surfaces such as architectural, motifs, stamps, swept or smooth finishes, as well as applying color to concrete. Cement workers install waterproof membranes to cement surfaces as well as other waterproofing products.

Cement workers are found in the four construction sectors - residential, institutional and commercial, industrial and civil engineering and transport.

Cimentier-applicateur

Les cimentières-applicatrices et les cimentiers-applicateurs, communément appelés les finisseurs de béton, préparent et réparent différentes surfaces en béton : planchers, trottoirs, bordures, par exemple. Ils installent des membranes d’imperméabilisation sur les surfaces de béton. Dans le cadre de leurs fonctions, ils peuvent avoir à réaliser des revêtements en béton décoratif, en crépi et en acrylique. C’est un métier de la construction qui exige une bonne condition physique et de la dextérité manuelle. Un emploi de cimentier-applicateur convient aux personnes minutieuses qui aiment travailler à l’extérieur.
