The paper presents different types of structural adhesives covering automotive body shop applications on non-pretreated metal substrates as well as trim shop bonding on painted or plastic type surfaces. For different applications key performance requirements as well as suitable test procedures are discussed. When combined with conventional joining techniques such as spot welding or riveting, or when used solely, structural adhesives have a significant effect on stiffness, durability, and crash performance. Structural adhesives also open the possibility of joining dissimilar substrates and reducing weight on existing conventional structures. This paper will present data on a box beam body structure that can be obtained when structural adhesives are used in addition to spot welds and when they are the sole joining method. Eventually, state-of-the art modelling techniques are introduced to demonstrate strengths and limitations of such methods.
