I think what Kyle is talking about is having some knowledge of how buildings are constructed and some basic carpentry skills. In the IT field at some point or another you will problably have to route and snake cables through walls and ceilings. You might also have to cut holes in walls and add jacks. Some places also have a "floating floor". It's like a suspended ceiling with removable tiles but in this case the floor tiles can be picked up and removed for access to shallow pits under the floor. In this case all the cables for the computers/servers will be under the floor.
