## Abstract Residual stresses due to the welding process in steel structures can significantly affect the fatigue behaviour. Usually, high tensile residual stresses up to the yield strength are conservatively assumed at the weld toes. This conservative assumption can result in misleading fatigue as
This paper presents a fatigue assessment for multi-pass welds based on the simulation of a welding process, a postweld heat treatment (PWHT) and a cyclic fatigue loading. The commercial software Virtual Weld Shop is used for the modelling of a welding process and PWHT. Welding induced residual stres
