Abstract
The two joining techniques i.e. adhesive bonding and mechanical fastening combined are termed as hybrid joints. These kinds of joints mix the benefits of each the joining ways. The composite materials are used in structures at larger extend because of its properties like high strength to weight ratio, high fatigue resistance, high impact strength etc. The paper evaluates the mechanical behavior of Hybrid joint using composite as adherents subjected to tensile loading. The joint was observed to fail in two stages. Initially because of failure of adhesive and later by the failure of the bolt. The different parameters like overlap length, bolt size, tightening torque and adhesive thickness were studied and the significant factor were found to be overlap length, bolt size and tightening torque
