Abstract: | Load Bearing behaviour of fillet weld connections of high‐strength fine grain steel. Latest investigations 1] have proved, that the load bearing capacity of fillet weld connections of thermomechanically rolled fine grain steel S 460 is underestimated in actual design codes 2], 3], 4]. In this article, a possibility of calculating the load bearing behaviour using FE programs is shown. Based on these calculations and the results of large scale tests, the influences of different production processes, different weld materials and the welding parameters on the load bearing capacity of fillet welds are rated. |
