It is well known that liquid metal embrittlement (LME) cracking can occur during the resistance spot welding (RSW) of zinc-coated high-strength steels. These cracks can be classified into two types, based on location, namely outer cracks inside or outside the electrode indentation region, and inner cracks around the weld area. Recent research has proposed that the latter cracks can be inhibited by controlling weld schedules, though there have been a few reports concerning especially the effects of these cracks on joint properties. In this study, an X-ray CT scan and a tensile-shear test were carried out consecutively with 10 mm-wide RSW joints in order to visualize the cracks in 3 dimensions, and to clarify their effects on tensile-shear strength (TSS). The cracks in the RSW joints of the zinc-coated ultra-high strength steel could be clearly observed by the scan. The results showed that the TSS decreased to 40% by the small interface cracks even with the maximum depth of 170 μm.
