Abstract

In an arc spot welded joint manufacturing method in which two steel sheets configured by high strength steel having a component carbon content of 0.07% by mass or greater are overlapped, and the sheets are lap welded together in a spot pattern. The method includes a first welding pass in which a second steel sheet on the lower side is melted up to a back face side, and first weld metal is formed including a first reinforcement portion, and a second welding pass in which a second weld metal including a second reinforcement portion is formed over the first weld metal, such that the heights of the first reinforcement portion or the second reinforcement portion is formed at t/5 or greater with respect to the sheet thickness t of the steel sheets, and the average weld bead diameter is formed at from 3t to 10t.
