Notes:
As these composites have become more popular, composite joint design has become avery important research area, as these joints are often the weakest parts of composite structures. Inthis paper, the strength of a composite laminated bolted joint being subjected to a clamping forcewas tested and predicted using the FAI (Failure Area Index) method. The strengths of compositejoints subjected to clamping forces on different geometric shapes and dimensions were predictedusing the FAI method, and the results were compared with experimental results. From the tests andanalyses, the strength of a given composite laminated bolted joint subjected to a clamping forcecould be predicted within 22.5% via the FAI method
