Study on the welding sequence optimization of circumferential welds of wide steel box girder

Based on the thermal elastic-plastic finite element method, a finite element model of steel single girder with single-box five-cells is established by ANSYS software. The model adopts shell element and non-uniform mesh generation method. The whole welding process of large complex structure with long weld is numerically simulated by using efficient segmented moving heat source, and the deformation of top and bottom plates of wide steel box girder under different welding sequence of circumferential welds is qualitatively compared. The results show that the welding sequence of web’s welds has little effect on the maximum vertical deformation(absolute value), it mainly depends on the welding sequence of the top and bottom plates. There will be obvious "wave deformation" along the weld direction on the top and bottom plates and overall outwarping deformation. The deformation of the top and bottom plates corresponding to the middle chamber along the weld direction is relatively gentle, showing "M" and "W" shapes respectively. On the path perpendicular to the weld seam, the vertical deformation decreases with the increase of distance between measuring point and weld seam. With a certain welding sequence, the variation range of "wave deformation" of the top and bottom plates of steel box girder can be adjusted effectively. A certain welding sequence can effectively adjust the variation range of "wave deformation" near the weld seam of the roof and floor of the steel box girder. Taking the alignment of the weld center line of the top plate of steel box girder as the comparison criterion, the optimal welding sequence is to weld the butt weld of web from outside to inside firstly, and then weld the butt weld of top and bottom plates.
