Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using inadequate fastening methods that do not account for the sheet's weight and load-bearing requirements.Employ high-strength, corrosion-resistant fasteners (e.g., stainless steel bolts and nuts) and ensure they are rated for the expected load.
Failing to account for thermal expansion and contraction, potentially leading to stress on the sheet or surrounding structures.Incorporate expansion joints or consider the operational temperature range during the design and installation phase.
