McDougall Metalworks | GTA Welding, Fabrication, and Repair
What separates ordinary fabrication from work where structural performance becomes a critical consideration.
Why the weld itself is only one part of a structural connection.
An accessible introduction to tension, compression, shear, bending and how loads move through a structure.
What needs to be considered when repairing or modifying metalwork that is already carrying load.
Where fabrication expertise ends and engineering, design approval or stamped documentation may be required.
In Canada, applicable structural welding requirements can involve CWB certification and CSA standards such as W47.1 and W59; requirements depend on the project and governing standard.
