Shear Resistance of Joints Spot Cold Pressure Welding

Article Preview

Abstract:

The statement from the specialty literature that with the increasing diameter of spot welded by cold pressure decreases the amount of resistance to shear force is due to reporting of the breaking by shear at the circular section of the point. Our experimental research shows that a welded cold joint in spots, correctly done, will be torn off near the weld spot by drawing the point from one of the tins. By reporting the force to the real section of breaking it resulted a constant shear resistance, no matter which the size of the welded point was. Therefore, the approximate theoretical calculation of the breaking force of a cold welded point, correctly executed, can be achieved by knowing the mechanical properties of the metal base and taking into account the real section of the breaking point given by points periphery and the thickness of the panel after deformation. The calculation is encompassing, because due to cold hardening, the real mechanical characteristics are higher.
