Adhesive joints, static shear strength values

Figure 2. Static shear strength values for adhesive joints in deteriorated Doug-las-Jir made with AYAT, Acryloid B72, Butvar B98, and PVA emulsion ""white glue Key P, polar solvent N, nonpolar solvent. (Adapted from ref 21).

Fatigue is only likely to occur if power is being delivered in shear through the joint line, and it may be avoided by keeping the continuous running load to around 10 per cent of the static shear strength of the adhesive, measured on the joint concerned. This may equate with the UTS value (see Section 2.2.3 and Figure 2.2).
