Welding residual stresses in high-strength steels: experimental results
- Welded plate girders are used in heavy steel construction, industrial buildings and bride construction. Residual stresses are present in all plate structures. They are mainly caused by welding. In addition, they influence the load bearing capacity of these welded components. However, Eurocode (EC) does not provide any specific residual stress patterns for consideration of residual stress impact on load capacity. Hence, the decision for a particular problem has to be made by the designer. Many codes, including EC 3, permit the use of non-linear finite element analysis (FEA) for the design of structures. For that purpose, the contribution gives an overview on recent results derived from welded I-girders made from mild steel S355 and high-strength steel S690QL. Weld residual stresses have been investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) on small-scale specimen. In addition, residual stresses of welded component-like I-girders have been studied using the sectioning technique.

In addition, residual stresses of welded component-like I-girders have been studied using the sectioning technique. The results confirmed the beneficial effect of certain edge preparation of the plates by flame cutting prior to welding. High-strength steels like the S690 can contribute to both: increased load capacity and decreased influence of weld residual stresses.…
