AI Technical Summary
Existing welding processes cannot effectively guarantee the welding reliability of thick dissimilar steel plates. In particular, cold cracks are prone to occur in the fusion zone and weld zone, and the heat-affected zone softens and loses strength during tempering. Furthermore, the difference in thermal expansion and contraction of dissimilar steels leads to uneven distribution of residual stress, which affects the welding quality.
A layered welding process is adopted, using appropriate welding materials and bevel design, combined with preheating, post-weld heat treatment and ceramic backing, to control the welding heat input and speed and ensure welding quality.
It enables reliable welding of dissimilar thick steel plates, avoids cold cracking and tempering softening problems, improves welding efficiency and quality, and meets high-temperature strength requirements.

Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of welding, and relates to a welding method for thick plate dissimilar steel, in particular to a welding method for a hinge steel bridge pier post anchor system of dissimilar steel cast steel. BACKGROUND
[0002] The main problem of welding of low alloy high strength steel with different strength levels is welding cold cracking in fusion zone and weld zone, and tempering softening loss of strength in heat affected zone, researches are mainly concentrated in adjusting the strength and toughness matching of the welded joint, controlling the microstructure and texture of each region of the welded joint, and optimizing the welding process to improve the weldability. The welding problems of steels with different compositions and microstructures mainly include dilution of weld metal, generation of martensitic brittle layer and carbon migration and diffusion layer, and distribution of residual stress of the joint. From the aspect of chemical composition of low alloy steel, with the increase of the content of alloying elements in the steel, the hardenability of the steel increases, which greatly affects the weldability. The content of alloying elements in the weld metal is mainly affected by the fusion ratio, and the fusion ratio depends on multiple factors, including the groove form, welding parameters and the melting characteristics and thermal conductivity of the metal. The generation of the transition layer in the fusion zone will reduce the performance of the joint and become a weak link of the joint, and the decarburized layer is also prone to intergranular corrosion when operating at high temperature. The uneven thermal expansion and thermal contraction of dissimilar steel will cause the distribution of welding residual stress to be different from that of the same metal, and the residual stress cannot be effectively eliminated by tempering, but only causes redistribution of the residual stress.
[0003] For different welding materials, it is necessary to develop targeted welding process, including pre-welding heat treatment, welding heat input, welding speed, heat preservation measures during welding, post-weld cooling speed and heat treatment process and other factors. The existing welding process cannot effectively guarantee the reliability of the welding of thick plate dissimilar steel in the present project, and related welding research tests need to be carried out to scientifically analyze and improve the welding materials and welding process.

[0023] In combination with the drawings.

The performance acceptance value is: Rm≥720MPa; Rel≥580MPa; A≥15%; the key points of the welding and heat treatment of the Q420qDZ35 steel plate and the Z35 material are as follows:
[0025] The Q420qDZ35 steel plate finally needs to be subjected to post-weld heat treatment at 500-580 ℃ for 2-3 h. The base material 20MnMoNb meets the welding requirements, but still has a large tendency of quenching and welding cold crack sensitivity. Therefore, in order to prevent the Q420 / 20MnMoNb welded joint from appearing post-weld cold cracks, the weldability of the steel can be improved by preheating before welding. According to the empirical formula of the minimum preheating temperature T0 / ℃ before welding and combined with the actual production, the preheating temperature of the Q420 / 20MnMoNb dissimilar steel T-shaped welding test plate can be determined to be 150-200 ℃.
