Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for metal thickness.Employ heavy-duty metal cutting tools and appropriate blades rated for the sheet's thickness.
Failing to account for material expansion/contraction in extreme temperatures.Consider thermal expansion coefficients during design and installation, especially in dynamic environments.
