Tensile Tests on Lap-Joints in Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastics.

Abstract

Results are presented for lap-joints tested in tension for adherends of type 1 and type 2 CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced plastics) AND ALSO FOR TYPE 1 TREATED CARBON FIBER LAMINATES WITH GLASS SCRIM CLOTH FACINGS. The percentage of the unjointed composite load realized in the jointed specimens was sometimes higher than 50% indicating that this type of joint could be suitable for joining CFRP to itself.
