Variable Affecting the Mechanical Properties of Carbon Steel Welds

metal fab

When designing a structure — whether it’s a bridge, building or vehicle — engineers have to do according to the strength of the base material. Every finished product is required to meet specific requirements, including how much weight it can withstand and the amount of force it can resist. During welding, it is typically important the filler metal match or slightly overmatch the base material’s mechanical properties to achieve those requirements and prevent weld failures that could be potentially catastrophic.
