| Abstract | The present investigation is aimed at optimizing the friction stir spot welding (FSSW) process parameters such as tool rotational speed, plunge rate, dwell time and tool diameter ratio, to attain the maximum strength in dissimilar joints of AA6061 aluminum and carbon steel. Experiments were conducted according to the four factor, five level central composite rotatable design matrix. Strength of the joints was evaluated by means of single lap shear test. Optimization was done by response surface method (RSM). A maximum tensile shear fracture load (TSFL) of 9.46 kN was exhibited by a joint welded using following parameters: tool rotational speed of 1000 rpm, plunge rate of 4 mm/ min, dwell time of 5 sec and tool diameter ratio of 3.0.
