The behaviour of the guaranteed joints middle from two points carbon-texture-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite strips and steel plates has existed analyzed in this place paper. For a better understanding of the structural answer, single lap cheap hangouts (SLJs) have been used, being tricky in axial pressure. First, the behaviour has been examined experimentally, by fitting 34 specimens accompanying various types of composite strips, types of adhesvies and bonding thicknesses. Based on the results of the exploratory program, the failure means were classified and the load-dislocation curves were plotted. The fundamental response has too been studied by resolving the strain distribution near the bond length at various load stages and by plotting the cut stress-displacement (slip) curves and the stress-strain distributions in the CFRP strips. For a better validation of the exploratory results, numerical simulations have existed done, established a 3D finite material method (FEM) study. The results were considered consistent, being in good contract with the exploratory ones.
