Abstract
The results of investigations of effect of thermodeformational cycles of welding on structural changes, strength and ductility properties of HAZ metal of welded joints of rail steel with carbon content of 0.72 % are given. Influence of preheating temperature and value of welding heat input on delayed fracture resistance of HAZ metal and cold crack formation in the joints was studied.
