Abstract
An experimental study of tensile failure behaviors of L-shaped adhesive-bonded and bolted hybrid composite joints, which are designed to connect composite cabins, is performed. A set of rigid jigs was designed to fix the specimens and ensure to apply an axial tensile load. The damage processes, failure loads and ultimate failure patterns of the joints are obtained from the tests. Some indentation around the fastener hole and remarkable discontinuity departure between the top and bottom L-shaped laminates which leads to the catastrophic failure can be observed on the specimens. It follows that the discontinuity is the weak spot and required to be strengthened.
