Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using insufficient fastening methods for the material's weight and intended load.Employ fasteners rated for the tensile strength and shear forces expected, or utilize certified welding procedures suitable for carbon steel.
Failing to account for thermal expansion and contraction in enclosed or high-temperature environments.Incorporate expansion joints or flexible mounting solutions where significant temperature fluctuations are anticipated.
