Abstract
A test method was presented to measure the bolt load distribution in the progressive damage process of multi-bolt composite joints, which exhibits continuous changes with the damage propagation in composite laminates. Based on the repeated loading-unloading cycles, bolt shear loads of a double-lap, three-bolt joint were tested by alternately using modified instrumented bolt-nut pairs and aircraft-grade fasteners, from which the bolt load...
