Applications of drawn arc and stud welding
Drawn Arc and Stud Welding are versatile joining methods widely used across structural, architectural and industrial applications. Studs, also referred to as shear connectors, play a vital role in securely connecting metal structures to concrete, providing strength, stability and durability.
Typical applications include steel columns and beams integrated with cast in situ concrete structures, staircases and floor systems where reliable metal-to-concrete bonding is essential. Shear connectors are also used to join protective metal strips into concrete floors, thresholds and other high-traffic areas ensuring both protection and precision alignment. Beyond structural uses, stud welding is employed in thermal management applications, such as the dissipation of heat on the outer casings of boilers and heat exchangers.
