Summary: | Adhesive bonding is a joining technique which has been extensively employed in structural design as its ability to join different types of materials allows higher freedom for designers when choosing materials. One of the most common joint configuration used is the single lap joint configuration. In this work a set of experimental procedures were undertaken to characterize a structural adhesive and model the behaviour of a single lap joint manufactured using this adhesive. Two types of surface preparations were used to study its effect in single lap joint strength. |
