Abstract

A practical method to examine the mechanical properties of a welded joint of actual building constructions is proposed. The Metallurgical characteristics of the joint (e.g., hardness), which are available by the seminondistructive methods proposed in the preceding paper, are used to evaluate the strength and the 0°C charpy absorbed energy. The method is also found to be successful in distinguishing hi-directional continuous welding condition from one whose interpass temperature is controlled less than 450°C.
