“…Numerical analysis investigations of the stresses in single-bolt tension joints in pultruded GRP plate material have been undertaken by Hassan et al 5 and, more recently, by Turvey and Wang. 6,7 All of the experimental and numerical analysis investigations, referred to above, provide information about single-bolt tension joints operating under normal conditions-that is, at ambient temperature (, 208C) in the dry state.…”

Effects of environmental conditions on failure loads of multi-bolt tension joints in pultruded GRP (glassreinforced plastic) plate have been quantified by physical testing. A simple bolt layout-two bolts on the tension axis-was selected. Joint geometry was defined in terms of the end distance (E), the pitch distance (P), the side distance (S) and the bolt diameter (D). The joints were tested under four sets of environmental conditions: (a) normal (ambient temperature (, 208C) + dry), (b) hot (608C + dry), (c) wet (ambient temperature + 6 . 5 weeks in water), and (d ) hot-wet (608C + 6 . 5 weeks in water). They were also tested with various geometries-that is, three, two and two values of the ratios (E/D), (P/D) and (S/D) respectively. A total of 144 joints were tested. Damage and failure loads together with failure modes were recorded. The effects of environmental conditions and joint geometries on damage and failure loads have been quantified and load reduction (knock-down) factors have been established for each of the environmental conditions.

“…So far, limited research has been done on FE modeling of PFRP bolted joints. Hassan et al [11] carried out FE analysis on PFRP double lap joints, Tsai-Wu failure criterion was implemented to predict material failure but it can only identify the failure region rather than failure modes. Turvey [12] and Feo et al [13] conducted numerical investigation on PFRP bolted joints to examine the stress and load distribution, the PFRP material was considered to be linear elastic, no damage of PFRP material was introduced.…”
