Abstract: The carrying capacity was calculated using the load transfer mechanism and the bonded-bolted deformation harmony condition for the bonded-bolted hybrid composite joints, which make holes, adhere coat and install bolts. The failure load of the bonded connection portion was calculated, and the shearing strain of the adhesive layer along the bonded length was analyzed when the bonded connection portion endured its failure load, and the load of the bolted connection portion was calculated using the bonded-bolted deformation harmony condition. The carrying capacity is the sum of the two loads. The carrying capacity calculated by the method was in good agreement with the experimental data, which validate the method.
