A series of experiments has been carried out to investigate the effect of titanium, boron and nitrogen on the microstructure and toughness of simulated heat affected zone (HAZ) in quenched and tempered (QT) type 490MPa yield strength steels. For acquiring the same strength level, the carbon content and carbon equivalent could be lowered remarkably with a small titanium and boron addition due to the hardenability effect of boron during quenching process. Following the thermal cycle of large heat input, the coarsened grain HAZ (CGHAZ) of conventional quenched and tempered (QT) type 490MPa yield strength steels exhibited a coarse bainitic or ferrite side plate structure with large prior austenite grains. While, titanium and boron bearing QT type 490MPa yield strength steels were characterized by the microstructure in the CGHAZ, consisting mainly of the fine intragranular ferrite microstructure. Toughness of the simulated HAZ was mainly controlled by the proper Ceq level, and the ratio of Ti/N rather than titanium and nitrogen contents themselves. In the titanium­boron added QT steels, the optimum Ti/N ratio for excellent HAZ toughness was around 2.0, which was much lower than the known Ti/N stoichiometric ratio, 3.4. With reducing Ti/N ratio from the stoichiometric ratio, austenite grain size in the coarse grained HAZ became finer, indicating that the effective fine precipitates could be sufficiently obtained even with lower Ti/N level by adding boron simultaneously. Along with typical titanium carbo­nitrides, various forms of complex titanium­ and boron­based precipitates, like TiN­MnS­BN, were often observed in the simulated CGHAZ, which may act as stable nuclei for ferrite during cooling of weld thermal cycles

본 연구에서는 교량용 구조용 강재인 HSB600 강의 용접부에서 입열량 (1.5~3.6 kJ/mm)과 용접후 열처리(PWHT, $600^{\circ}C$, 40hr.)가 미세조직과 기계적 특성에 미치는 영향에 관해 연구하였다. HSB600 강재를 GMA용접을 실시하였다. 용접된 상태에서는 인장강도와 경도는 입열량이 증가할수록 저하되었으며 충격 흡수 에너지는 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 낮은 입열량인 1.5 kJ/mm에서 침상형 페라이트가 가장 많이 생성되었다. 용접후 열처리를 통해 경도와 인장강도가 저하되었고, 용착금속의 충격흡수에너지가 증가되었다.

This study investigated the creep and creep crack growth (CCG) behavior of the base metal (BM), weld metal (WM), and heat affected zone (HAZ) in a Gr. 91 weldment, which was made by a shield metal arc weld process. A series of tensile, creep, and CCG tests were performed for the BM, WM, and HAZ at 550 ℃. Creep behavior of the BM, WM, and HAZ was analyzed in terms of various creep laws; Norton's power-law, Monkman-Grant relation and damage tolerance factor (λ), and their constants were determined. In addition, each CCGR law for the BM, WM, and HAZ was proposed and compared in terms of a C^*-fracture parameter. The WM and HAZ revealed faster creep rate, lower rupture ductility, and faster CCGRs than the BM, but they showed a similar behavior in the creep and CCG. The CCGRs obtained in the present study exhibited a marginal difference when compared with those of RCC-MRx of currently elevated design code in France. A creep crack path in the HAZ plane progressed towards a weak fine-grained HAZ adjacent to the BM.

교량용 고성능 강재는 높은 인장강도, 항복강도, 고인성, 용접성등이 요구된다. 교량 구조용 강재인 TMCP HSB600강의 GMA용접부에서 입열량(1.4~3.2kJ/mm)과 용접후 열처리가 기계적 특성과 미세조직에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 용접된 상태에서는 입열량이 증가할수록 인장강도와 경도는 감소하였다. 입열량 1.4kJ/mm에서는 빠른 냉각 속도에 의해 베나이트적 페라이트와 탄화물 집합체 등의 경한 미세조직이 생성되었고 입열량 2.1kJ/mm에서는 침상형 페라이트가 다량 생성되었으며, 고입열량인 3.2kJ/mm에서는 입계페라이트 사이트 플레이트와 구형 페라이트가 많이 생성되었다. 용접 후 열처리를 통해 용접부의 잔류응력의 감소와 결정립 조대화로 인하여 인장강도와 경도는 감소하였으나 충격흡수에너지에는 큰 차이가 없었다.

This research presents an evaluation of the weathering and deterioration state of the Wanggung-ri five-storied stone pagoda in the Iksan (National Treasure No. 289) and suggests conservational schemes. A deterioration map of the pagoda was drawn from the aspects of petrological, physical, chemical, biological, structural and artificial weathering.The rock properties consisting of the pagoda were medium-grained biotite granite that had leucocratic phenocryst developed in parts. The body of each story suffered severely from the secondary contamination that turned the colors into light grey, pitch dark, yellowish brown, and reddish brown as well as granular decomposition, exfoliation and peel-off. The roof stones were heavy exfoliated or peeled off in most of the cases. In addition to the fine cracks, there were layered cracks on the corners. The roof stones of the3rd and 4th story in the north and west side had some stones fall-off, while those of the 2ndstory in the north side had steel reinforcement filled for a fixing purpose. Those of the 5th story showed big gaps that must have originated from cracks and were easily subject to granular decomposition and rainfall. The inside clay filler was missing in the lower part of the roof stones of the 4th and 5th story and the supporting stones, which were thus covered by light grey or pitch dark sediments. The contact area of the materials was about 70 % in the parts where there was a space due to the filler missing and washigher than 90 % in the lower parts of the pagoda. About 90 % or more of the roof stones surface of each story were covered by aerial plants that formed a thick biological mat. Thus it seemed necessary to come up with the conservational measures to remove the plans living on the surface of the stone materials, with the plans to prevent rain from falling inside, and with the water repellent and hardening treatments to postpone the surface weathering of the rock properties. All those measures and plans must be based on the results of long-term monitoring and thorough detail investigations.

The objective of this study was to determine the criteria for density and moisture content measurements made with a nuclear density meter on common materials in the construction field. The study also sought to test a full-type nuclear density meter in controlling the density of overlay layers( 2.5~5.0cm). In order to determine the accuracy and reliablility of nuclear guage measurements made on construction materials, laboratory and field tests were conducted. Wooden blocks( 65 x 45 ${\times}$ 50 cm) and a special steel compactor( 4.7kg) were constructed in order to carry out tests which were conducted on three different materials; coarse gramed soil, fine grained soil, and AC material. Throughout all laboratory and field tests, the nuclear density and moisture content were determined using Humboldt 5OOLP nuclear gauge. The tests on subgrade material entailed obtaining density measurements by means of both the sand replacement method and the nuclear density meter. The results of the sand replacement method were then compared to the readings recorded bu the meter. As in the subgrade material tests, density measurements made during AC pavement tests were also determined using the unclear meter in addition to a second means; through the core method. The meter readings and core densties were compared as was done in the tests on subgrade materials. The correlation between the results of the sand replacement test( also, the core method) and meter readings on subgrade material was then determined. Sirnilarly, the observed results were then analyzed through linear regression. The tests to determine thin-lift density by means of a full-type nuclear density meter also conducted on the overlay layers( about 4. 8cm thickness) above AC pavements at road construction sities in Korea.

This paper presents a new generation of system for pressure vessel and shipbuilding. Typical pressure vessel and ship building weld joint preparations are either traditional V, butt, fillet grooves or have narrow or semi narrow gap profiles. The fillet and U groove are prevalently used in heavy industries and shipbuilding to melt and join the parts. Since the wall thickness can be up to 6" or greater, welds must be made in many layers, each layer containing several passes. However, the welding time for the conventional processes such as SAW(Submerged Arc Welding) and FCAW(Flux Cored Arc Welding) can be many hours. Although SAW and FCAW are normally a mechanized process, pressure vessel and ship structures welding up to now have usually been controlled by a full time operator. The operator has typically been responsible for positioning each individual weld run, for setting weld process parameters, for maintaining flux and wire levels, for removing slag and so on. The aim of the system is to develop a high speed welding system with multitorch for increasing the production speed on the line and to remove the need for the operator so that the system can run automatically for the complete multi-torch multi-layer weld. To achieve this, a laser vision sensor, a rotating torch and an image processing algorithm have been made. Also, the multitorch welding system can be applicable for the fine grained steel because of the high welding speed and lower heat input compare to a conventional welding process.

Post-Weld Heat Treatment (PWHT) cracking susceptibility in the weld heat-affected zone (HAZ) of reduced activation ferritic-martensitic (RAFM) steels was evaluated through stress-rupture tests. 9Cr-1W based alloys including different C, Ta and Ti content were prepared. The coarse grained heat-affected zone (CGHAZ) samples were simulated with welding condition of 30 kJ/cm heat input. CGHAZ samples consisted of martensite matrix. Stress rupture experiments were carried out using a Gleeble simulator at temperatures of $650-750^{\circ}C$ and at stress levels of 125-550 MPa, corresponding to PWHT condition. The results revealed that PWHT cracking resistance was improved by Ti addition, i.e., Ti contributed to the formation of fine and stable MX precipitates and suppression of coarse M23C6 carbides, resulting in improvement of stress rupture ductility. Meanwhile, rupture strength increased with increasing solute C content.

기관밸브용접 SCr4-21-4N 및 SUH3-21-4N을 연구선정된 최적마찰압접조건 하에서 마찰압접을 하고 이때 생기는 압접부의 잔류응력 및 경도의 peak 등 압접결함의 제거 및 압접성능개선을 위한 열처리에 관하여 실험연구한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. (1) 배기 valve용강 SCr4-21-4N 및 SUH3-21-4N의 마찰압접을 위한 최적조건으로서 회전수 3,000rpm, 마찰가열압 p 하(1)=8 kg/mm 상(2), upset 압 p 하(2)=20 kg/mm 상(2), 압접가열시간 t 하(1)=3초, upset 시간 2.5초를 선정한 것이 매우 타당함이 실험적으로 입증되었다. (2) 이종재질 SUH3-SUH31, SCr4-SUH31, SCr4-SUH3, SUH3-CRK22, SCr4-21-4N 및 SUH3-21-4N의 마찰압접에 관한 저자의 종래 연구와 본연구 결과는 압접부의 압접 특성이 서로 매우 일치하였다. (3) SCr4-21-4N 및 SUH3-21-4N의 마찰압접부의 잔류응력 및 전도의 peak를 제거하기 위한 최적열처리조건은 $600^{\circ}C$$\times$30min.$\times$room air cooling의 normalizing임이 확인되었다. (4) 이때 열처리 후에는, 열처리전의 인장강도의 약 20%가 감소했으나, 파단 위치는 열영향부로부터 모재 SCr4 및 SUH3 측으로 이동하였다. (5) 상기 최적조건 하에서 마찰압접되고 열처리된 압접부의 현미경 조직검사 결과, 압접부가 매우 좁고 압접결함이 없으며, 치밀하고 조밀한 조직의 우수한 압접이었음이 확인되었다. (6) 상기 최적조건은, 기관 valve 생산을 위한 타이종재질의 마찰압접조건으로도 응용될 수 있을 것이다.
