Microstructure and failure behavior of galvanized low carbon steel resistance spot welds were investigated. Failure mode, peak load and energy absorption obtained in tensile-shear test were used to describe spot welds performance. It was found that weld fusion zone size, electrode indentation and expulsion can significantly affect the mechanical performance of spot welds. Failure mechanism of spot weld which fail via pullout mode during tensile-shear test was “through thickness” localized necking in the base metal. However, those spot welds which have experienced severe expulsion during welding, failed at the fusion zone/HAZ interface. This can contribute to the reduction in energy absorption capability of spot welds due to the harder microstructure of the fusion zone/HAZ compared to the soft ferritic base metal.
