Abstract

In this paper, the aim was to determine the fatigue strength of underwater performed repair welds because lower weld quality can be expected. Wet welding partially causes internal defects and the high cooling rates result in quenched microstructures. This is assumed to significantly reduce the fatigue behavior, so that the prevailing fatigue classification may not be valid. Using different steel grades, non-load-carrying attachments were wet SMAW welded at different water depths. The samples were fatigue tested and statistically evaluated. The fatigue strengths were found to be very comparable to the atmospheric weld detail’s fatigue classes FAT71.
