Abstract
Combined loading fatigue tests were conducted on spot welded coupons of a galvanized sheet steel for proportional, constant amplitude loading conditions. The factors that influence the failure modes of the coupons are described and photographs of typical failure modes are presented in addition to the fatigue life results of the tests. The fatigue crack initiation sites for all of the tests were at the edge of the spot weld nugget at the sheet...
