Which outcome occurs in welded steel structures when lamellar tearing initiates?

💡 Explanation

Increased sulfur content causes hydrogen embrittlement, initiating lamellar tearing and brittle cracks because hydrogen diffuses to grain boundaries. This weakens the steel's tensile strength perpendicular to the weld’s plane, therefore reducing structural safety, rather than boosting fatigue or corrosion resistance.
