WELDING TESTS ON STRUCTURAL AND RAIL (CW1.018). FERROUS ARC WELDING. EFFECTS OF HYDROGEN AND RELATED VARIABLES ON THE PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF WELDS ON STRUCTURAL STEELS.

Abstract

Bend test specimens, prepared from bead-on-plate welds, were tested as simple beams on a 4-1/2 in. span with the weld beads in tension. The investigation included a study of variables affecting hydrogen embrittlement, of the effect of these variables in different regions of the weld, of possible methods of relieving the detrimental effects, and of a possible relationship between hydrogen embrittlement and restraint during welding.
