Abstract
The application of flash-butt welding of reinforcement bars in civil engineering under site and semi-stationary conditions in construction of monolithic reinforced concrete structures is considered. This method is characterized by a high stability of characteristics of quality of concrete reinforcement being welded and absence of auxiliary consumables. The main technological parameters of the process were determined, basic technologies were developed, providing the increase in service life of reinforced concrete structures, improvement of their reliability and guarantee of high service life.
