ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method of bonding together two pieces of composite material (10, 26) by applying a layer of glass fibre (20, 28) to a surface of each piece of composite material10, 26, and bonding the pieces together by means of adhesive (30) between the layers of glass fibre (10, 26). The inclusion of the glass fibre layers (20, 28) advantageously promotes failure of the bond adjacent the glass fibre-adhesive interface rather than at the glass fibre-composite material interface, with the result that damage to the composite material (10, 26) is minimised, and subsequent repair is made easier.
