Materials may be joined together:

  • mechanically (e.g. using interlocking joints, nails and screws),
  • chemically (e.g. with glue),
  • by heat (e.g. soldering or welding).


In addition, connections may be:

  • permanent (i.e. not intended to be taken apart) - usually achieved by glueing, welding, soldering or brazing for example;
  • semi-permanent (.i.e. possible to take apart for reclamation, alteration or repair, but not the prime intention) - using nails, screws, rivets or stitching for example;
  • temporary (i.e. designed with the intention of being easily removable for replacement or maintenance etc.) - using nuts and bolts, keys and keyways, press studs, knock-down(KD) fittings.
