Abstract
Abstract— The basic fatigue strength of welded joints in four steels having different yield strengths has been obtained by tests in which the maximum applied stress was held constant and equal to the yield strength, to simulate the tensile residual stress in real large‐scale structures. In the long‐life region superior properties occurred with a decrease in the yield strength. It is therefore suggested that both low yield strength steel, which can be produced by a thermo‐mechanical control process without affecting the tensile strength, and steels or welding consumables which show a low transformation temperature, may have a high fatigue strength.
