The practice of upgrading metal parts with composites in large structures has led to an increased use of composite joints, particularly mechanical fastenings, due to ease of assembly and replacement. A drawback of mechanical joints is that damage is difficult to detect visually. In this research, an embedded carbon nanotube network has been used to modify the conductivity of bolted composite joints. In situ electrical resistance measurements in conductive composites have potential to provide quantitative evidence of damage as well as insight into the type of damage which occurs during tensile loading. We demonstrate that the electrical resistance of a bolted composite joint is more sensitive to certain modes of damage (e.g., matrix cracking and delamination) than others (bearing and shear-out), due mostly to the varying amount of void space created, thus proving the potential of an embedded carbon nanotube network in the health monitoring of mechanically fastened cross-ply composites.
