Alloys are metals that have been mixed with other metals or elements to take on new properties. Metal alloys typically offer greater strength, durability and flexibility over the base metal. Some examples of metal alloys are steel, bronze, stainless steel, and titanium. One of the benefits of a metal alloy is that it can reduce […]

Read moreHave you have ever noticed waviness, wrinkles, or a buckled appearance on flat metal panels, such as metal wall panels and roofing? That’s oil canning. This type of stress buckling can happen on just about any type of flat sheet metal including aluminum, steel, and copper. Oil canning is usually noticeable prior to construction, and […]
Read moreWaterproofing joints is an important consideration when fabricating metal projects that will be exposed to rain, submerged underwater, or assembled near water. To keep water and air out, a breathable, water-resistant sealant is used to fill gaps while still allowing for expansion and contraction. Silicone is one of the most frequently used sealants to achieve […]
