A study was performed to compare the properties of weld-bonded joints in several zinc-coated high-strength (H260LAD GI) and advanced high-strength steels (DP600 GI and DP800 GI) with spot-welded and adhesive bonded joints. Both the microstructure of the spot-welds and the mechanical properties of the joints were evaluated. Joints were tested under varied static loading conditions and, to a more limited...
