Structural welding is a specialized process used to join metal components together, primarily in construction and manufacturing. This technique ensures that structures like buildings, bridges, and machinery are strong and durable. Welders use various methods, such as MIG (Metal Inert Gas) and TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding, to create reliable connections between metal parts. The quality of structural welding is crucial for safety and longevity. Welders must adhere to strict standards and codes, such as those set by the American Welding Society (AWS), to ensure that their work can withstand the stresses and loads placed on the structures. Proper training and certification are essential for welders in this field.
