Abstract
It is suggested that an integrated parameter, which allows for the level of alloying of solid solution with manganese, silicon, titanium and aluminium, as well as the content of titanium oxides in inclusions located in the bulk of ferrite grains, should be used to evaluate the effect of alloying of metal of the submerged-arc welds on their mechanical properties.
Keywords: steel, alloying, structure, weld, titanium
