    In this study, timber column–sill joints strengthened with carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) plates using bonds and screws were subjected to loading tests. Twelve joint specifications were considered depending on different combinations of the CFRP plate surface finish and thickness and the type of bond, and the corresponding effects on the load–displacement behavior of the joints were investigated. Three failure modes were observed in addition to the peeling of the CFRP plate. The specimens that failed owing to screw tear out and screw head pull-through in the CFRP plate or splitting of the sill showed load–displacement curves of a similar shape.

    With the increasingly comprehensive utilisation of Carbon Fibre-Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) in modern industry, defects detection and characterisation of these materials have become very important and draw significant research attention. During the past 10 years, Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies have been attractive in this area due to their outstanding ability in complex data analysis tasks. Most current AI-based studies on damage characterisation in this field focus on damage segmentation and depth measurement, which also faces the bottleneck of lacking adequate experimental data for model training. This paper proposes a new framework to understand the relationship between Barely Visible Impact Damage features occurring in typical CFRP laminates to their corresponding cont...
