“…Various parameters need to be taken into account to ensure safety in the design with regard to the bolt connection in order to induce bearing failure. Researchers and manufacturers who have studied bolt connections of composite materials have suggested a geometric recommendation index based on experiments and experience [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. Geometric coefficients for a bolt's width-to-diameter ratio of 6 (i.e., / = 6) and end-to-diameter ratio of 3 (i.e., / = 3) were proposed to induce bearing failure according to ASTM Standard D5961/D5961 M-96 [21].…”

Bolt-hole clearance affects the failure mode on the bolted connection system of pultruded fiber-reinforced polymer plastic (PFRP) members. The various geometric parameters, such as the shape and cross-sectional area of the structural members, commonly reported in many references were used to validate the bolt-hole clearance. This study investigates the effects of the bolt-hole clearance in single-bolt connections of PFRP structural members. Single-bolt connection tests were planned using different bolthole clearances (e.g., tight-fit and clearances of 0.5 mm to 3.0 mm with 0.5 mm intervals) and uniaxial tension is applied on the test specimens. Most of the specimens failed in two sequential failure modes: bearing failure occurred and the shear-out failure followed. Test results on the bolt-hole clearances are compared with results in the previous research.

“…In detail, local bearing failure modes are characterized by a local laminate compressive failure caused by the bolt diameter which tends to crush the composite material. Pin-bearing failure mode of bolted FRP joints, locally associated with matrix cracks, is an important design problem that has attracted the interest of the international scientific community, as confirmed by the great number of researches carried out in the last years [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. Results of these studies have highlighted that both geometric (e.g., bolt diameter, plate width and thickness, end distance) and material properties (e.g., fiber inclination angle, matrix type and fiber nature, stacking sequence) highly affect the strength and the failure mode of FRP-based jointed elements.…”

ABSTRACT. In this paper, a numerical home-made finite element model for the failure analysis of bolted joints between fiber-reinforced composite laminates is presented. The model is based on an incremental displacementbased approach, it is hinged on the laminate theory and on a progressive material degradation governed by the failure of composite constituents. The model has been applied to a pin-plate system comprising a monodirectional fiber-reinforced laminated plate, and numerical results in terms of the bearing failure load have been successfully compared with available experimental data. Aim of this paper is to evaluate the effectiveness of Rotem's and Huang's failure criteria in predicting the pin-bearing failure of bolted joints. The selected criteria act at different material scale: the former operating at the laminate level, while the latter at the constituent's scale. Proposed results seems to suggest that failure criteria accounting for micro-structural stress-strain localization mechanisms (for instance, Huang's criterion) give a more accurate estimate in terms of pin-bearing failure load.
