**7. Conclusion**

This chapter described the titanium as a metal that exists naturally with two crystalline forms. The chapter highlighted the properties of titanium metal that influence its application. The fact that titanium has advantageously unique properties that can be improved by alloying with other elements makes it to be preferred engineering material for future application in such areas as biomedical implants, aerospace, marine structures, and many others. The chapter discussed the traditional, current and future methods necessary to produce structures using titanium and titanium alloys. Further, the chapter suggested "additive manufacturing methods" as advanced methods for future manufacturing because they offer powerful solutions for making any type and number of products cost-effectively and with little waste. The examples of these methods are cold spray, 3-D printing, electron beam melting, and selective laser melting. Finally, the various processes used during fabrication of alloys using these methods were also presented.
