E.O. Paton Electric Welding Institute of the NASU 11 Kazymyr Malevych Str., 03150, Kyiv, Ukraine.

Abstract
The described software enables computation of structure and mechanical properties of the HAZ metal in welding of structural steels on the basis of t8/5 determined from the heat models, steel grade from the computer atlas of the austenite decomposition diagrams or chemical composition of steel from the regression models.
Keywords: software package, heat model, martensite, bainite, ferrite, pearlite. Vickers hardness tensile strength, yield strength, reduction in area at fracture, impact toughness
