Adhesively-bonded joints, including double-and stepped-lap joints (DLJs and SLJs), were experimentally investigated under cyclic tensile loading. The joints were composed of pultruded GFRP laminates and epoxy adhesive. A critical stiffness was found for DLJs and a critical elongation for SLJs at whi
