Non-Destructive Testing of Dissimilar Welded Joints

Abstract

This paper presents research’s results of non-destructive examination of dissimilar welded samples. The samples were made using sheets of austenitic stainless steel and carbon steel welded through the method of MAG welding with tubular wire. The samples were subjected to non-destructive testing in order to analyse the integrity of the welded seam, heat affected zone and the adjacent area of the weld.
