We have investigated a possibility of obtaining high-quality welded joints after oxygen and plasma cutting of steel С355 without removing the heat-affected zone (HAZ), in which the changes in chemical, phase and structural compositions are observed. Numerical and experimental studies of the effect of heat input of MAG and Submerged Arc welding on the quality of welded joints are performed. In particular, it was found that when the heat input of welding is at least 6.5 kJ/cm, the metal of HAZ of the edges after cutting is heated during the welding to temperatures above Ас3, which leads to its full recrystallization. When the heat input of welding is at least 10 kJ/cm, the edges after cutting are completely melted and become a part of the welding seam metal. The presence of extensive areas of melting and recrystallization of the edges in the welding process contributes to obtaining high-quality welded joints without removing the HAZ of the edges after cutting. To verify the results of numerical studies, experimental tests of control welded joints were conducted, which showed that the values of bending angle and impact toughness of the welding seam metal and heat affected zone are significantly above the regulatory requirements to quality of welded joints, and not less than the same requirements for steel С355. The obtained results confirm the possibility of revising domestic regulatory requirements for the steel constructions production in terms of the preparation of edges for welding using technologies of thermal cutting without subsequent machining.

Metal Inert Gas welding is a fast, reliable and cost effective technique for joining of different ferrous materials and steels used in the construction of large structures like Fe410WA, IS2062, SS304, AISI1040 and AISI316 etc. To obtain better quality and performance of the steel welded joints, parameter optimisation of metal inert gas welding procedure and weld heat treatment process is carried out. In optimization work and studies, variables of GMAW process like welding voltage and current, speed of welding, WFR (rate of wire feed), GFR (rate of gas flow), type of gas used and effect of heat treatments are kept changing to get best combinations of input parameters for best quality of welded parts. The quality of welds is evaluated in terms of mechanical properties of welded joints like ultimate tensile and yield strength, elongation, microstructure, heat affected zone and defect free weld joints etc. Model and experimental studies are done in different combinations to get best combination of input parameters for steels. Studies by authors have identified the significance of input parameters in ascending order and some of them also quantified the optimal values of the input parameters. Pre and post weld heat treatment of structures is beneficial in improvement of mechanical and fatigue properties.

Hot cracking is one of the major challenges in laser welding of Invar alloy. In this study, welding hot cracking susceptibility experiments are conducted with fish-bone‐type Invar alloy sheets under pulsed laser welding condition. The pulse wave consists of two distinct power levels: welding pulse and post-heating pulse. The welding temperature field can be controlled by changing the duration of the post-heating pulse. The results of experimental measurements and finite element method calculation show that increasing of the post-heating pulse duration leads to a decline in the cooling rate of weld metal within the brittle temperature range, although the welding hot cracking susceptibility decreases at first and then increases. Neither the heat input nor the cooling rate is the only decisive factor for hot cracking during the welding process.
