| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Simple heat sources such as high frequency induction heating and ceramic heaters can be used for on-site heat treatment. Using these heat sources, a method was proposed for converting the residual welding stress that adversely affects the load-bearing and fatigue-resistance performance of steel structural members into a stress distribution that is advantageous for various performances of the members. Experiments to identify the optimum heating conditions by heat treatment using various heat sources and simulations by thermal elastic-plastic analysis were performed. Furthermore, loading tests and fatigue tests were conducted to confirm the improvement effects of load resistance and fatigue resistance by heat treatment.
