“…In general, there are four possible failure modes for pultruded fiber-reinforced polymer plastic (PFRP) singlebolted connections that are subjected to tensile forces [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12], as shown in Figure 1. Figure 1(a) illustrates net-tension failure, which is attributable to the reduced cross-sectional area of a FRP member that is due to the bolt hole.…”

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.

“…Fifty-four tests on hand-tightened single-bolted tension connections in 6.4 mm thick pultruded plates were reported by Turvey [14]. In these tests Turvey explored the effect of offaxis angle between the rovings and tension directions, for different connection geometries.…”

A review of the behaviour and analysis of bolted connections and joints in pultruded fibre reinforced polymers

This paper presents a literature review of the state-of-the-art experimental and analytical methodologies adopted in the construction industry for the design of mechanically fastened connections and joints in pultruded fibre reinforced polymer framed structures. Results and conclusions obtained from the published literature relating to the effects of critical parameters, which include geometry, material properties, configuration, connecting components, fasteners, lateral restraint, etc. on the mechanical behaviour and failure modes are discussed in the light of addressing gaps in knowledge that need resolving to prepare design guidance that is reliable and robust. Further research required to improve the design of composite mechanically fastened joints is identified as a result of this review.

“…Moreover, all of the tests were carried out with the tension axis parallel to the pultrusion direction, so that both were aligned with the glass fibre roving reinforcement. Somewhat later, an investigation into the effects of off-axis tensile loading on the failure behaviour of single-bolt double-lap joints in 6.4 mm thick plate was reported (Turvey, 1998). The results of these investigations, together with those of several others not cited, constitute a large database of ultimate tensile stresses of single-and multi-bolt double-lap joints.…”

The paper describes 120 uniaxial tensile failure tests on pultruded glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) singlebolt single-lap joints. For each joint the lap width to bolt/hole diameter ratio W/D and bolt diameter D were 4 and 10 mm, respectively. Five end distance to bolt/hole diameter ratios E/D and four test temperatures were investigated. The joints were subdivided into 20 groupsone for each E/D and temperature combination-and each group comprised six nominally identical joints. In addition to the joint tests, a number of uniaxial tensile failure tests were carried out on the virgin GFRP plate of the joints' laps. Mean ultimate loads and extensions derived from the joint failure tests are presented and used to compile graphs of ultimate stress and overall failure strain as functions of joint geometry and test temperature, from which corresponding characteristic values have been obtained. In addition, knock-down factors, which express the ultimate stresses of the joints, relative to the ultimate stress of the virgin GFRP plate, have been derived. The knock-down factors have been compared with those obtained earlier for single-bolt double-lap joints. The factors may be useful for the preliminary design of single-bolt tension joints.
