Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using undersized fasteners or inadequate welding procedures.Always consult engineering drawings and material load ratings to select fasteners or welding processes that meet or exceed the required strength and safety factors.
Failing to account for material expansion and contraction in extreme temperature environments.Incorporate expansion joints or flexible mounting strategies where significant temperature fluctuations are anticipated to prevent structural stress.

Common Applications
