Abstract
The paper presents results of investigation of resistance of steel 06GB-390 to lamellar-tough and lamellar-brittle fractures, as well as of evaluation of impact toughness (KCV_-40) of the weld and HAZ metals of butt joints on this steel (as-welded and after heat treatment). The joints were welded in free and rigidly restrained states. It is shown that steel 06GB-390 is not susceptible to lamellar-tough and lamellar-brittle fractures, while impact toughness of the weld and HAZ metals of the butt joints hardly changes in any of the cases.
