| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard stainless steel in highly corrosive environments. | Always specify 316 stainless steel for applications involving saltwater, high concentrations of chlorides, or aggressive chemicals. |
| Failing to account for thermal expansion during design. | Incorporate expansion joints or flexible mounting strategies in designs utilizing thick metal sheets exposed to significant temperature variations. |
