Abstract (EN):
The post-welding rolling technique was used to modify the welding residual stress profile of butt joints of S355 structural steel. Two different residual stress measurement techniques were used: contour method and neutron diffraction. A good agreement between the results of both measurement techniques was found, illustrating the capability of the contour method to provide data otherwise available only using costly neutron and synchrotron radiation. The effect of post-weld roller tensioning on residual stress consisted in a substantial change in residual stress profile, with the large tensile stresses along the weld seam becoming compressive
