Doctoral Thesis progress: High Strength Steels as reinforcement in concrete structures

Abstract

This paper talk about the experimental work developed in the thesis in progress. The aim of this paper is analyzing the effect of resistance welding parameter´s on commercial and, Dual Phase bars obtained through partial austenitizing heat treatment. In first place, it was summarized the commissioning of equipment and characterization techniques. After that, it was evaluated the behavior of Projection welded joints on ATR 500 N and Dual Phase bars obtained through partial austenitizing heat treatment.
