COLD CRACKING IN THE WELDING OF STEELS

THE MORPHOLOGY OF COLD CRACKING IN THE WELDING OF STEEL, THE CIRCUMSTANCES IN WHICH IT OCCURS, AND THE METHODS OF STUDY OF THE PHENOMENON ARE DESCRIBED. THE THREE FACTORS THAT DETERMINE COLD CRACKING ARE ANALYZED TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE CONSEQUENCE OF THEIR COEXISTENCE. ANALYSIS OF THESE FACTORS, THE INFLUENCE OF THE TRANSFORMATION STRUCTURE, THE ROLE OF HYDROGEN, AND THE EFFECT OF STRESSES, PERMITS CONCLUSIONS TO BE DRAWN CONCERNING THE OBJECTIVES OF CURRENT CRACKING TESTS, ALLOWS PREVENTIVE MEASURES TO BE TAKEN, AND INDICATES PROBLEMS IN NEED OF FURTHER STUDY.
