DETERMINATION OF NECESSARY PREHEATING TEMPERATURE IN STEEL WELDING

This paper was presented at the AWS Annual Meeting, Kansas City, Apr. 1982. The Authors <of Nippon Steel Corp.> describe an investigation in which an examination was made of various tests that are used to determine the critical preheating temperatures for avoiding cold cracking when welding conventional and newly-developed steels, with carbon contents between 0.02% and 0.26%. An important finding is a proposed new carbon equivalent for use in assessing the cold-cracking susceptibility of the steel; it results in a more satisfactory assessment than either the IIW carbon equivalent <used in BS5135> or the Ito carbon equivalent <used in an ISSC procedure>.
