STIFFENED PLATE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME

摘要

A method of forming stiffened plate by welding a plurality of stiffener materials and a steel plate, so that closed cross-sectional structures are secured onto a surface of the steel plate. The stiffener materials are joined to the steel plate as a result of edge portions of the stiffener materials which are in contact with the steel plate by being laser welded at a predetermined welding speed as a result of a laser having a predetermined output being irradiated from a predetermined direction thereon from the external side of the closed cross-sectional structures. Accordingly, it is possible to achieve an improvement in the weld quality when welding stiffener materials onto a steel plate, and to achieve an improvement in fatigue strength.
