The basic aim of this study was to find a relationship between heat input and mechanical properties of high strength low alloy steel (HSLA) welded joints and also elaborate its effect on microstructure. The combined effect of welding current, voltage and speed i.e. Heat Input on mechanical properties of High Strength Low Alloy Steel (ASTM A242 type-II) weldments have been studied in the present work. HSLA steel work pieces were welded by Gas metal arc welding (GMAW) process under varying welding current, arc voltage, and welding speed. Total nine samples were prepared at different heat input level i.e. 1.872 kJ/mm, 1.9333 kJ/mm, 2.0114 kJ/mm, 2.1 kJ/mm, 2.1956 kJ/mm, 2.296 kJ/mm, 2.4 kJ/mm, 2.5067 kJ/mm and 2.6154 kJ/mm It was observed that as heat input increases the ultimate tensile strength and microhardness of weldment decreased while impact strength increased and it was also observed that on increasing the heat input grain size of microstructure tends to coarsening it is only due to decreasing in cooling rate.

This work presents the improvement of hardfacing welding for American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) A572-based high-strength, low-alloy steel by controlling the heating/cooling conditions of welding process. In the welding process, the buffer and hardfacing layers were welded onto A572-based material by a nickel–chromium electrode and chromium carbide electrode, respectively. The base metal and electrode materials were controlled by the heating/cooling process during the welding to reduce excessive stress, which could result in a crack in the specimens. The welded specimens were examined by visual and penetrant inspections for evaluating the welding quality. The macro–micro structure of the deposited layer was investigated; scanning electron microscope with an energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer (SEM-EDS) and XRD were used to characterize structural properties, elemental compositions, and crystallite sizes of the welded specimens. The surface properties, such as hardness, impact, and abrasive wear of the welded specimens, were tested for evaluation of the wear resistance of the welded specimens.

This work purposes to investigate the microstructure and the mechanical behavior of dissimilar metals weld between 2205 duplex stainless steel (UNS 31803) and high strength low alloy steel API X52. The joining was produced by shielded metal arc welding process using two different filler metals, the duplex E2209 and austenitic E309 grade.The microstructures of the dissimilar welded joints have been investigated by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The EDS analysis performed at the API X52/weld metal interface showed an evident gradient of Cr and Ni between fusion and type II boundaries, where the highest hardness value was recorded.

Hydraulic support is an important part of fully mechanized equipments. The constructional steels of hydraulic support with international advanced level mainly adopt the high-strength welding structural steel with its tensile strength of more than 700~1000MPa.This paper analyzes the chemical compositions features of S890 high-strength low alloy steel for 900MPa grade.The Influence of welding parameters,peak temperature and on the microstructures and mechanical properties of welding HAZ of S890 high-strength low alloy steel were investigated by thermo-simulated tests, The influence of welding heat input on the mechanical behaviors of the welded joint was also investigated. The results show that the microstructures of S890 steel change from tempered martensite to bainite and a little ferrite , pearlitic when welding heat input changes from low to high, and accompany the austenite grains coarsening ,so the impact toughness and hardness of welding HAZ at lower peak temperatures and shorter are higher than that at higher peak temperature and long . Welding HAZ produced by the second weld bead will overlap partially with the HAZ produced by the first weld bead. In this area, primitive microstructure tempers again or partial re-phase transformations and re-cools,but the area involved in the overlap is limited,so the influence on the properties of S890 steel is not obvious. In covered arc welding,the influence on the welded join strength of S890 steel is not distinct when heat input change in a certain scope, but the plasticity of the welded join falls off steeply as heat input increases. Keywords: S890 steel; high-strength low alloy steel; weld performance; hydraulic supports
