In this work, the stress results of a two-dimensional finite element (FE) analysis are used to understand failure modes of a bolted joint in low temperature cure CFRP woven laminates loaded in tension and predict the bearing strength. Good agreement with experimentally observed damage modes and strengths is achieved; in some cases the difference is less than 10%.
