As with legal malpractice claims based on negligence, in breach of fiduciary duty claims legal experts are typically called to testify. Expert testimony helps explain to a jury what the attorney should have done under the circumstances in question.
Bending is a metal forming process in which a force is applied to a piece of sheet metal, causing it to bend at an angle and form the desired shape. A bending operation causes deformation along one axis, but a sequence of several different operations can be performed to create a complex part.
For this test method, guided bend specimens are of three types, depending on whether the axis of the weld is transverse or parallel to the longitudinal axis of the specimen, and which surface (side, face, or root) is on the convex (outer) side of bent specimen. The three types are defined as follows: a. Transverse Side Bend. The weld is transverse to the longitudinal axis of the specimen which is bent so that either one of the side surface becomes the convex surface of the bent specimen. b. Transverse Face Bend.
