Installation Procedure

1. Accurately measure and mark cut lines on the carbon steel stock sheet based on design specifications. 2. Employ appropriate cutting methods (e.g., plasma cutting, waterjet cutting) to achieve precise dimensions. 3. Deburr all cut edges thoroughly to remove sharp projections and prepare for subsequent fabrication processes like welding or machining.
