The aim of this work is to predict the crack initiation and failure based on the Von Mises stress distributions at the edge of the overlap region. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software is used to investigate the stress distribution under tensile loading on composite lap joints. From the Von Mises stresses results, the bonded joint and hybrid joint of basalt-fiber reinforced plastic (BFRP) specimen’s produces higher results than bonded joint and hybrid joint of glass-fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) specimens due to higher interfacial bonding strength. A well-designed bonded joint of BFRP laminates is very efficient for composite lap joint structures compared to hybrid (boned/riveted) joints. It is suggested that the application of basalt/epoxy laminate as a strengthening material is useful for joining of composite structural members in the engineering fields.
