In order to study the high strain rate effect of the high-strength steel structure weld and its heat-affected zone material under the action of explosion, in this paper, the Q460JSC and HQ600 high-strength steel welded specimens were quasi-static and high strain rate tensile test of 1500/s to 5000/s using electronic universal testing machine and Hopkinson rod tester. The dynamic mechanical properties of high strength steel welded joints were studied. The results show that both the weld and its heat affected zone have strain rate sensitivity, and the strength and ultimate strain are higher than quasi-static under high strain rate. The center weld strength is higher than that of the base metal but the plastic deformation ability is weak. The strength and ultimate strain of the Q460JSC heat-affected zone are about 10% lower than that of the base metal, while the HQ600 high-strength steel has a smaller drop and better weldability.
