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. This contribution gives an overview on recent research topics: modeling, experimental measuring and evaluation of residual stresses as well as welding simulation tools and simplified methodologies for assessment of weld residual stresses.

In addition, they influence the load bearing capacity of these welded components.

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. 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.
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 addiiton, 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. Recent developments in the last years, enabled the use of computerized models instead of laboratory experiments. In this scope, the FE-model should include all relevant factors properly. This important if considering that weld residual stresses can be a critical assessment factor. In addition, measuring of residual stresses is difficult, time consuming and expensive, it is therefore common to use founded distribution functions (e.g. Swedish BSK 99). Welding simulation tools offer new possibilities for a realistic assessment of weld-induced stresses and deformations. However, the modeling and the computational effort for large structural components is still not in a practicable range and a simplified methodology is in needed. As a result, a new approach (suitable for capacity analysis) is presented and detailed in the present contribution.
This article addresses the imperfections in high-strength steel I-shape sections caused by weld assembly. Load influencing imperfections are assumed mainly as deviations from the ideal shape (e.g. bending distortion) and longitudinal residual stresses. The quality of a numerically aided design of components exposed to either compression and/or bending is significantly dependent on those parameters. In this scope, major gaps in knowledge are still present. Eurocode (EC) is providing robust simplified models that date back to the 1960's and 70's. As a result, the ultimate limit state (ULS) is approached on a quite conservative basis. The investigations are presented in this article are aimed to give further guidance on these values in component-like specimens in the context of Eurocode.
Current efforts for lightweight design result in a growing application of high-strength fine-grained structural steel in modern steel constructions, e.g. mobile cranes, with yield strength from 960 MPa. The design of welded structures and the welding process become more challenging with increasing material strength due to higher elastic ratios. The formation of high residual stresses, which are able to diminish lifetime, load capacity and component safety, has to be avoided. Recent numerical and experimental analyses have shown a strong influence of the heat control and the rigidity of the weld on the welding stresses. Global reaction stresses due to an external shrinkage restraint superimpose with local residual stresses in the weld seam. Modern inverter technologies allowed the development of numerous modified spray arc processes driven by the power source manufactures with almost equal characteristics. They provide several well-known technical and economic benefits, like the possibility of welding narrower seam configurations. As a result a smaller weld volume, total heat input and, therefore, reduced welding stresses are achievable. This research focuses on the welding loads due to modified weld seams. The global reaction forces in welded components due to an external shrinkage restraint were investigated in a special in-house developed testing facility. Additionally, the superposition of the local residual stresses, global stresses and bending moments were analysed with the help of X-ray diffraction. The intensity of the restraint, the weld seam configuration and the weld process (transitional arc and modified spray arc) were varied for a statistical evaluation of the resulting welding loads. It was observed that under restraint a smaller weld seam volume affects reduced reaction stresses.

Purpose is the formulation, numerical implementation, identification and application of a material model for ductile damage and failure during cyclic and non-proportional loading.
The authors combined a hyperelasticity-based elasto-plastic model for non-linear isotropic as well as kinematic hardening with a modified Gurson model. Evolution strategy helped identify the model parameters for the high-strength steel 10MnMoNi5-5. The simulation of ductile failure in fracture mechanics specimens verified the model with respect to cyclic loading at two temperatures. The simulation of additional fracture mechanics applications validated the model as to the development of residual stresses at the crack tip under cyclic loads.
Present trends to lightweight design lead to an expanding relevance of high-strength fine-grained structural steels especially in mobile crane constructions. With growing material strength, the challenge for welding fabrication increases, since high loading capacities and safety requirements have to be accomplished. The utilisation of the high strength potential often requires complex constructions associated with high restraint conditions while welding. Increased residual stresses may occur due to superimposing reaction and restraint stresses, which have to be quantified and evaluated to ensure the safety and integrity of high-strength steel constructions. Particularly, the scope of residual stresses has to be taken into account for different effects in the HAZ, notches, weld and base metal. Commonly, conservative assumptions of residual stresses lead to distinct underestimations of the load bearing capacity particularly for welded high-strength steel constructions. This study concludes results of recent works of the researchers regarding the complex interaction among heat control, material and restraint intensity on the residual stress state in welded components. These analyses are extended by further experiments. Based on the obtained major effects, an approach for a welding residual stress assessment regarding component design according to prevailing standards for crane construction, an important application for high-strength steels, is presented.
Presentation of the work of division 9.4 with focus on the Key aspects of component welding applying higher-strength fine-grained structural steels. The increased application of higher-strength steels and filler materials necessitates a more profound understanding of the interactions between the welding process, the heat input, the cooling conditions and the resulting metallurgical processes in the weld and its surroundings. Strategies, which help to improve the strength properties and life-time of welded structures to such an extent that the utilisation of higher-strength materials can be justified and their lightweight construction potential can thus be exploited to the full, can only be derived from the interaction between all the influencing factors. Examples of a few investigations on welded joints between higher-strength fine-grained structural steels with regard to the interactions between the main variables influencing the cold cracking are presented.
