BOOM/ARM MEMBER FOR CONSTRUCTION MACHINE, HAVING HIGH WELDED PORTION FATIGUE STRENGTH, AND METHOD OF IMPROVING THE FATIGUE STRENGTH

摘要

The present invention provides a boom and arm member of a construction machine excellent in weld zone fatigue strength and a method of improvement of its fatigue strength, that is, a boom and arm member of a construction machine superior in weld zone fatigue strength, the boom and arm member of a construction machine characterized in that toes of full penetrated weld zones of the boom and arm member have vibration strike marks, and a method of improvement of its fatigue strength. Preferably, the residual stress of the bottom surface of the vibration strike marks is a 10 MPa or higher compressive residual stress.
