Abstract Using MMS-300 thermal simulation tester,the welding thermal cycle simulation tests were carried out for Q690q weather-resistant bridge steel. The microstructures,impact toughness and hardness of the coarse grained heat affected zone (CGHAZ),fine grained heat affected zone (FGHAZ) and inter-critical heat affected zone (ICHAZ) under the heat inputs of 10.5-114.9 kJ/cm were studied,and the morphology of the impact fractures were observed. Then,using the preferred welding heat input,the welding process evaluation tests of the preheat-free flux cored arc welding (FCAW),a metal inert-gas welding,and submerged arc welding (SAW) were carried out. Results show that when the heat input is low,CGHAZ and FGHAZ are mainly lath martensite,and ICHAZ appears as island-like M/A components,which make the impact toughness decrease and the hardness increase of these areas; when the heat input is high,CGHAZ is mainly large-sized granular bainite,quasi-upper bainite or upper bainite,while the large bulk M/A components increase and their sizes become larger,resulting in a significant decrease in impact toughness. At the same time,the higher heat input makes FGHAZ generate more high-temperature transformation microstructures of polygonal or quasi-polygonal ferrite and pearlite,the hardness of which is significantly reduced,and makes ICHAZ generate quasi-polygonal ferrite,carbide-free bainite and degraded pearlite,in addition to matrix microstructure of tempered sorbite,in which the carbide particle sizes become large,as a result,its strength and toughness decrease; when the heat input is 18.2-25.7 kJ/cm,CGHAZ is dominated by lath bainite with fine and heterotropic packets,FGHAZ form fine and uniform lath bainite and granular bainite,ICHAZ are mainly fine tempered sorbite and lath bainite,etc.,so that the three experimental sub-regions of heat affected zone obtain high impact toughness and hardness comparable to that of the base metal. Therefore,the preferred welding heat input should be controlled in the range of 18.2-25.7 kJ/cm. Using welding heat input of (22±1) kJ/cm,the developed 40 mm thick Q690q weather-resistant bridge steel plate has good weldability and welding performance for FCAW and SAW under preheat-free welding conditions,and the strength and toughness of the heat affected zone are not much different from the base metal. Thus it can be seen that the Q690q weather-resistant bridge steel was successfully tried in the laboratory to be preheat-free welded.
