Introduction As the main way of connection of modern steel structures, welding is widely used in aerospace, marine engineering, structural engineering, machinery manufacturing and other fields.
In the engineering, welded structures usually bear complicated multiaxial cyclic loading, and weld zone is the hot spot of fatigue failure.
a Transverse residual stress comparison (σx) b Longitudinal residual stress comparison (σy) Fig.8 Residual stress comparison of the center line in vertical weld direction Fig.8 shows that, compared to the results of numerical simulation, all the experimental results are on the reasonable side: from an engineering point of view, this is a satisfactory result, confirming that the FE method can effectively simulate the welding process of high strength steel butt welding.

Reliability Analysis of Hydraulic Tunnel Lining Structure with Stochastic Finite Elements Method Donghai Liua, Jiang Zhengb and Zilong Lic School of Civil Engineering, Tianjin University, 300072, P.
Massive uncertain(random or fuzzy)factors exists in hydraulic tunnel lining engineering, while almost all input parameters have some extent of random in finite element analysis.
Speaking overall, the tunnel belongs to I level hydraulic engineering structure.
Obviously this engineering areas exists apparent level tectonism.
According to the engineering characteristics, this article mainly considers randomness of material parameters and level tectonic stress.

Introduction As an efficient way to reinforce plate/shell structure, rib is used widely in civil production, aviation and navigation equipments, and mostly designed orthogonally in tradition.

Analysis of the problem of Construction Enterprise’s Human Resources Structure Optimization Ying Ou College of Civil engineering, Shenzhen University, Shenzhen, China szuce@szu.edu.cn Key word : Construction enterprise human resources structure optimization Abstract: The human resources structure situation and its the subject problems of the Chinese construction enterprises were analyzed, The reasons were studied from the aspect of the planned economy system, human affairs system, internal management system and enterprise human capital investment.
Shortages of engineering and technical persons, combined persons, skill workers are more prominent.According to recent data published by China Statistical Yearbook[2], The share of construction professionals, engineering and technical staff and enterprise management is lower than the national average about 3-5%.
The construction industry is a huge engineering system, the kind of work is various, the work procedure is complex, the high or low level technology personnel are needed at the same time, the necessary persons include have project managers, engineers, technicians, construction workers, security staff, quality inspector, machine operator, surveying engineering, bricklayer, carpenter, electrician, fitter, plumber, painters, welders, riveter and so on, which require a large number of skilled workers.
