Abstract
The effect of thermal cycles of arc welding on the structure and mechanical properties of metal of the heat-affected
zone of welded joints of microalloyed structural steels of the strength class from c350 to c490 was investigated. it was
established that as a result of the action of thermal cycles of welding, metal structure of the heat-affected zone of most
microalloyed steels of the strength class from c350 to c490, except for steel 09g2syuch, remains stable bainite in a
wide range of cooling rates, and mechanical properties do not change significantly. as a result of welding, at moderate
cooling rates the structure of the heat-affected zone metal in the steel 09g2syuch can change from bainitic to bainitomartensitic and martensitic as the metal cooling rate increases. as a result of that, the values of static strength and
impact toughness of the metal are increasing and its ductile properties are reduced. 12 ref., 5 Tables, 7 Figures.
Keywords: structural steels, thermal cycle of welding, metal structure, mechanical properties, welded building
