INVESTIGATION OF STEELS FOR IMPROVED WELDABILITY IN SHIP CONSTRUCTION, PHASE 3

This is the third and final phase of a multi-year effort aimed at investigating factors that influence the microstructure in the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) of economically produced ship plates with high yield strengths when subjected to high heat inputs such as electroslag and submerged arc welding. The Ship Structure Committee has published the first two phases as SSC-298 and SSC-305.
