Piping Solutions Using Non-Welded Connections
For hydropower and dams, welding has been the predominant method for joining metals and fabricating pipe systems. However, there is an alternative that is steadily emerging as an easier-to-install, safer, more efficient and cost-effective approach: piping solutions using non-welded connections and cold bent piping. Welding is a time-intensive process that requires skilled tradesmen.

And safety considerations are always in play because fumes are emitted creating risks of fires and explosion.
