Determination of the Effect of Current and Travel Speed of Shielded Metal-Arc Welding on the Mechanical Properties of A36, A516, and A514 Steels.

Abstract

This study was performed to determine the limits on current and travel speed -- in particular nugget area -- as defined by the results of tensile and impact properties of butt joint welds produced by manual shielded metal-arc welding in carbon steel (A36), pressure-vessel steel (A516), and high-strength, low-alloy steel (A514).
