| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using lower grade stainless steel in corrosive environments. | Always specify 316 stainless steel for applications involving saltwater, chemicals, or high-temperature, high-humidity conditions to ensure optimal corrosion resistance. |
| Inadequate support for heavy gauge sheets. | Ensure sufficient structural support and fastening points are incorporated during the design and installation phase to prevent sagging or deformation of the 0.959" thick sheet. |
