Abstract
The outer surface of a butt-welded joint is build-up welded such that a ratio h/t is higher than approximate 0.2 and a ratio L/.sqroot.Rt is higher than approximate 1, where h denotes height of a build-up welded portion; t, wall thickness of a pipe; L, width of the build-up welded portion; and R, radius of the pipe. As a result, the residual stresses in the build-up welded portion counterbalances the residual stresses in the welded joint, whereby the residual stresses at the inner surface of the welded joint can be relieved.
