An investigation on the residual stress distributions near the weld toe of HSS plate-to-plate T and Y-joints is carried out. Two groups of specimens, corresponding to welding preformed at ambient temperature and at a preheating temperature of 100°C, are fabricated. The effects of preheating and join...
