Abstract

Abstract The capacities of Z‐pinning in improving the bending performance of composite T‐joints were examined experimentally and numerically. It was found that Z‐pinning was not effective in enhancing the maximum bending load capacities of the T‐joints. Delamination at the interfaces of flange/filler, flange/flange, flange/skin, in the arc‐flange, as well as the fracture of the upper corner of the filler was observed. Among those failure patterns, the notorious delamination formed in the arc‐flange assumed the main responsibility of the disability of Z‐pinning in enhancing the maximum bending load capacity. Despite this, Z‐pinning was found to be highly effective in improving the residual plateau load‐carrying capacities of the T‐joints and the maximum bending displacement could also be dramatically increased, making the T‐joint maintain considerable bending load capacity under large deformation and preventing the T‐joint from catastrophe failure once the maximum bending load was attained.
