“…In this case an additional layer of resin could be applied to increase the ultimate strength, or a metal surface corrugation treatment could be made improving the adhesion between the steel plate and the adhesive. Previous works [18,19,34], show the effectiveness of the adhesive bond. Due to the proven structural cooperation between glass and substrate element, stiffness increases in the resulting structure are achieved [19], and hybrid structures with high ductility could be obtained [18,34].…”

“…The mechanical performance of adhesive joints in unreinforced configuration is investigated and compared to that of reinforced ones. The use of adhesive bonding enables structural cooperation between glazing panels and substrate elements [19], making it possible to reduce the crosssection of the load-bearing substrate element and to guarantee high mechanical performance. This objective seeks to meet market research, which is oriented towards the assembling of large, glazed panels supported by structural elements with reduced dimensions.…”

“…Numerous techniques, aimed at reducing stresses concentration and increasing cross-resistance [20], were developed in terms of material design and joint geometry. Amiri et al [19] investigated the effect of the geometrical parameters of the "button-shaped" edge reinforcement experimentally and numerically. Different parameters such as the radius and the height of the button, the geometric and mechanical properties of the adhesive were considered.…”

The use of reinforcements in adhesive joints makes the stress distribution more uniform, improving their mechanical performance and adhesion. The present paper aims to verify the effectiveness and efficiency of the insertion of nylon 6 fabric in the adhesive layer, to study their applicability and functionality in building components. The increase in stiffness achieved by applying nylon 6 fabric in the adhesive layer between glass and GFRP pultruded profiles and steel laminates applied to GFRP beams is investigated. Three different epoxy adhesives and one epoxy resin are used and compared. Three different types of tests are carried out in order to study the different properties of the reinforcement system: tensile tests on GFRP/GFRP single-lap adhesive joints, with and without nylon fabric reinforcement; tensile tests on double-lap adhesive joints between float glass and pultruded GFRP profiles reinforced with nylon fabric according to four configurations (in the middle plane of the adhesive layer, on the glass surfaces, on the GFRP surfaces, on both GFRP and glass configurations) to verify the influence of its position; three-point bending tests on long GFRP tubular profiles reinforced with steel plates and nylon fabric in different configurations, to study resistance to bending loads. The results from the experimental campaign show the effectiveness of the reinforcement system using nylon fabric 6. In general, both a reduction in ultimate strength and an increase in joint stiffness compared to unreinforced configurations are observed.
