METALLURGICAL PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH WELDING OF STEELS

PROBLEMES METALLURGIQUES ASSOCIES AU SOUDAGE DES ACIERS

Based on a temperature-time diagram, the metallurgical phenomena related to welding are chronologically described. The transformations and the characteristics of the fusion zone and the heat-affected zone in steel welding are examined with the aid of transformation diagrams for continuous cooling. The defects resulting from the thermomechanical effects of welding--i.e., cold cracking and lamellar tearing--are discussed.
