Welding-The Manufacturing of Steel Tubular Poles
For steel monopole, steel tube pole, and steel tubular tower, in addition to longitudinal seams, circumferential fillet welds between flanges and the tube body are made by CO₂ gas metal arc welding (GMAW) or automatic submerged arc welding. The welding procedure follows qualified WPS (e.g., preheat 80–120°C, interpass temperature ≤200°C). Circumferential welds undergo 100% magnetic particle testing (MT) and 20% radiographic testing (RT, AB grade). Weld appearance meets AWS D1.1 or ISO 5817 Level B requirements, with typical welding distortion controlled within ≤1mm per meter.
