Zusammenfassung: | An energy absorbing joint for joining separate portions of a structure at least one of which is a composite material portion includes clamping means located on a surface of the composite portion, fastener means extending through complementary holes in the joint portions for joining the clamping means and joint portions together and composite material release means in the surface of the clamping means to permit the controlled release of composite material debris derived from disintegration of the bearing surface of the hole in the composite portion and caused by an excess load on the joint. |
