This experimental study aimed to<br>investigate the behavior of the tee joint welding between reinforcing steel and steel plates, using both the yield<br>(YS) and tensile (TS) strengths as indicators. It was also directed towards understanding the strain hardening<br>value (TS/YS), which is the ratio between these factors. The experiment was conducted by testing three types<br>of welding connections, WC-1, WC-2, and WC-3, under tensile loads. The WC-1 and WC-2 are common<br>models mostly used to join steel components in reinforced concrete structures, while WC-3 was the proposed<br>connection model. The results showed TS/YS ratios of WC-1, WC-2, and WC-3 specimens were 1.19, 1.23,<br>and 1.27, respectively. This means the value of the proposed specimen is higher than the required 1.25 by the<br>ASTM A706M and was also recorded to have the best tensile strength.<br><br></p> ER -
