The thickness of the steel sheets used in the element was gradually increased to meet the load bearing capacity requirements of large span steel bridges. As the main method of joining heavy plate steel, welding results in significant residual welding stresses with a complex distribution. Large residual stress during welding will significantly affect the performance of steel bridges. In this work, the distribution of residual stress in a welded thick steel sheet is systematically investigated, a specimen with a thickness of 80 mm was designed and manufactured, and the residual stress of welding was measured by X-ray diffraction.

Keywords: steel bridge, thick steel plate, welding residual stresses, X-ray diffraction method, weld joint
