As I understand it, unbuttoning is something that is *supposed* to happen. If it doesn't, the weld has failed.

As I understand it, unbuttoning is something that is *supposed* to happen. If it doesn't, the weld has failed.
Example sentence:
If the settings are correct, the joint will 'unbutton', that is the weld nuggets will be on one sheet and the holes on the other.
After that the unbuttoned area (white arrow) can be investigated by optical microscopy in order to determine geometry, diameter and type of fracture.

Die Art des Bruches
Die Art des Bruches (Ausknöpfen oder Abscheren) und die Größe des ausgerissenen Schweißbutzens bzw. der abgescherten Fläche sind Beurteilungsmaßstäbe für die Tragfähigkeit der Verbindung.

Man unterscheidet bei der Art des Bruches zwischen einem Ausknöpfen und einem Abscheren. https://www.harms-wende.de/sonstiges/lexikon/

The quality of spot weldings can be determined by destructive and non-destructive testing methods as well as by an indirect analysis of the process parameters.… In the laboratory the weld quality is often determined by a chisel test. During this procedure the chisel is mechanically forced between the two metal sheets until one of the sheets is removed by unbuttoning. http://www.ndt.net/events/ECNDT2014/app/content/Paper/608_Sc...
