Abstract

This paper presents the results of measurements of welding residual stresses in two plate-web girders. It is concluded that the longitudinal residual welding stresses in the webs are compressive, except for a narrow zone at the web-flange junction and at the flange tips, while tensile stresses exist at the welds. An analysis for residual stresses was performed for one girder, giving results in fair agreement with the measured residual stresses.
