Abstract
To provide the background informations for performance-based design of joining for FRP structures and FRP bonding for steel structures, the subcommittee on investigation research of joining of FRP and steel at committee on Hybrid Structures in Japan Society of Civil Engineers investigated the current researches, the design standards and the examples of joining design for FRP structures and FRP bonded steel structures for over two years. This report presents a summary of accomplishment report of "Advanced technologies of joining for FRP structures and FRP bonding for steel structures", Hybrid structure report 09 by subcommittee. This report is divided into two sections, namely the first section is "Design concept and strength evaluation of joining for FRP structures" and latter section is "Evaluation of FRP bonding for the case of repair or strengthening of steel structures".
