Resumen: The steel A515 is currently used in welded constrution. For these structures fatigue cracks can initiate at the weld toe and propagate with semielliptical front shap. This paper presents results of a research about fatigue of surface crack growth. Two stress ratio were studied: O and 0.3. For each of these condictions the da/dN-AK, da/dN-AKer curves and the crack clousure were obtained. The fracture mechanisms were studied by means the scanning electronic microscopy.
