Effects of the aging treatments on the microstructure and strength of heat affected zone(HAZ) in the welds of a age-hardened Al-Mg-Si alloy, 5N01-T5, were investigated. The base metal aging treatments before MIG welding were conducted at 423K to 473K for 28.8ks Post weld heat treatment(PWHT) to recover the HAZ strength was performed at 448K for 28.8ks. Microstructure observations, hardness measurements and tensile tests were conducted to study properties of the MIG weld joints. The position of the softest region in HAZ where the hardness insufficiently recovered after natural aging and PWHT was at a distance of approximately 15mm from the center of the fusion zone. Hardness of the softest regions after natural aging and PWHT decreased with increase in the base metal aging temperature. TEM observation clarified that strengthening ${\beta}$"(Mg$_2$Si) precipitates and coarse ${\beta}$′ precipitates affected the hardnes of HAZ. Incomplete recover of hardness in HAZ after PWHT was caused by the precipitating of non-hardening ${\beta}$′ phase during the weld thermal cycle. In order to examine the effects of weldheat input and welding speed, the laser weld joints were also investigated and compared with the MIG weld ones. Laser welding had the narrower width of the softened regions in HAZ compared with MIG welding. The hardness of the softest regions of the laser welds after PWHT was higher than that of the MIG welds. Quantitative relations between hardness of the softest region and base metal aging temperature were obtained for both welding processes. Accordingly, the equations to estimate the strength of the weld joints after PWHT with varying base metal temperatures were proposed for MIG welding and laser welding.

최근 고성능 대형 강구조물에 많이 적용되고 있는 TMC 강재에 대해 두께 20m, 60m, 82m의 후판을 6m~16mm의여러 용접치수로 필릿용접하여 겹이음부가 있는 시험체를 제작하고, 인장시험을 통하여 필릿용접부의 강도를 측정하였다. 측정된 필릿용접부의 강도는 모재의 두께, 용접 치수, 용접축에 대한 힘의 작용방향 등을 달리한 모든 경우에 설계기준에서 적용하고 있는 강도 계산식에 의한 공칭강도의 값보다 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. 특히 60mm와 82mm 두께의 모재에 대해 국내도 로교설계기준에서 요구하고 있는 최소 용접치수보다 더 작은 용접치수를 적용한 경우에도 시험체 제작과정에 용접의 어려움이나 용접부의 결함, 균열 등이 발견되지 않았으며, 용접부의 강도도 다른 경우와 거의 동일한 수준인 것으로 나타났다.

강교 제작에는 녹, 흑피 등의 이물질 제거 및 도료의 부착성 증대를 위하여 도장 전 블라스트 표면처리가 실시되고 있지만, 이러한 강교 도장용 블라스트 처리가 용접이음의 피로강도에 미치는 영향에 대한 검토는 미흡한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 강교 제작시 사용되는 블라스트 처리조건에 의한 압축잔류응력 도입량을 정량적으로 평가하고, 압축잔류응력에 의한 용접이음의 피로강도 향상 정도를 검토하기 위하여, 먼저 국내 7개 강구조물 제작사의 블라스트 처리조건을 조사하였다. 이를 근거로 도출한 10가지의 블라스트 처리조건별 알멘스트립의 아크하이트와 강재시편의 표면조도, 경도 및 잔류응력을 측정하여, 이들 측정값과 블라스트 처리조건들과의 상관관계를 검토하여, 아크하이트 측정으로 압축잔류응력을 근사적으로 추정할 수 있음을 제시하였다. 그리고 블라스트 처리 전 후의 맞대기 용접이음의 압축잔류 응력 측정과 피로시험을 실시하여, 블라스트 처리에 의해 맞대기 용접이음부의 용접지단부에는 약 170MPa이상의 압축잔류응력이 발생하였으며, 이로 인하여 맞대기 용접이음의 피로강도는 용접부가 없는 원판 강재 이상으로 크게 향상됨을 확인하였다.

A comparison of the welding performance of ship hull structural steels has been made. The weldability of steels especially designed for laser processing was compared to that of conventional hull and structural steels with plate thicknesses up to 12 mm. Autogenous laser beam welding was used to weld butt joints as well as skid and stake welded T-joints. The welds were assessed in accordance with the document "The Classification Societies" Requirements for Approval of $CO_2$ Laser Welding Procedures" Small imperfections in the weld only grew slightly in root bend tests and they only had a minor influence on the fatigue properties of laser fillet welded joints. In Charpy impact tests, the 27 J transition temperature of the weld metal and HAZ ranged from below -60 to $-50^{\circ}C$. The amount of martensite in the weld metal depended on the carbon equivalent of the steel with the highest amounts and highest hardness levels in conventional EH 36 (389 HV 5). Thermomechanically rolled steels contained less martensite and showed a correspondingly lower maximum hardness.ximum hardness.

In Charpy impact tests, the 27 J transition temperature of the weld metal and HAZ ranged from below -60 to -5$0^{\circ}C$. The amount of martensite in the weld metal depended on the carbon equivalent of the steel with the highest amounts and highest hardness levels in conventional EH 36 (389 HV 5). Thermomechanically rolled steels contained less martensite and showed a correspondingly lower maximum hardness.

S-N fatigue tests were conducted to investigate the fatigue strength of small diameter socket and butt welded joints made of carbon steels. Experimental parameters were pipe diameter, throat depth, shape of socket welds and welding procedure. Filler metals used in SMAW and GTAW procedure were E9016-G with diameter of 4.0 mm and ER70S-G with diameter of 2.4 mm. API 5L Gr.B pipes were adopted as a small diameter branch pipes. All socket fittings were machined from ASTM A105 carbon steel. Tensile strength was not affected by the welding procedure. Fatigue strength in socket weld joints increased with increasing pipe diameter, area of weld metal and weld leg length of pipe side.

Dimensional difference by welding deformation is usually occurred at steel bridge manufacturting or multi-pass welding used at joining of thick plates. Be this, root gap out of standard is frequently developed at butt weld joints. For example, although standard root gap below 6mm at butt weld joints of plates under 15mm thickness, maximum 30mm root opening is developed at the weld field. At this case, 24mm parts out of standard is generally built up. But, there are no accumulated data and restriction about this built up welding pars. In this study, therefore, the accumulation of data for built up parts and the verification of the mechanical properties of weld part as root gap is performed. It is included that tensile, bending, impact, hardness test and microstructural review for each welding specimen of 0mm, 6mm, 30mm root opening.

The main subject of this study is the construction of an automatic welding system that has the capability to trace the weld seam in GMA welding of lap joints. The system was composed of a vision sensor, moving torch, and personal computer(IBM-PC). In the developed vision sensor, an image was captured by the frame grabber at the time of short circuit during welding. The threshold method was adopted for determining the structured light and the central difference method for detecting the weld joint. And the seam tracing of the torch was performed by using the data regeneration algorithm. In this system using the image at the time of short circuit, weld seam tracking was performed without any relations to arc light and spatters.

To investigate how the fabrication and repair of socket welded joints could be used to enhance fatigue resistance under vibration condition, experimental test data of installation conditions that potentially influence fatigue strength were analyzed with the S-N curve. It was found that the decreasing fatigue strength of stainless steel socket welded joints was attributed to the effect of high heat input of welding process. The effect of welding method, slip-on gap and radial-gap conditions on fatigue strength was insignificant. The test data of repair technique application, 2 × 1 leg length and of socket weld overlay, clearly showed higher fatigue strength but there was a limitation for higher stress region because of the weld toe crack.
