Welding Techniques in Modern Steel Fabrication

Welding is the critical link in structural steel engineering. The integrity of bridges, PEB warehouses, and heavy industrial facilities depends heavily on weld penetration and defect-free joining.

### Essential Welding Methods

1. **Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW)**: Widely used for on-site structural erection and emergency repairs.

2. **Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW / MIG)**: Preferred in workshop environments for high-speed, continuous fabrication of PEB components and rafters.

3. **Submerged Arc Welding (SAW)**: The gold standard for heavy built-up girders and bridge trusses, providing deep penetration and high metallurgical purity.

### Quality Control & NDT Testing

At Structro Infra Tech, all welding follows strict WPS (Welding Procedure Specifications) and PQR documentation, backed by Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) including Ultrasonic Testing and Magnetic Particle Inspection.
