Delaminations are the most typical damage in composite laminates, and the industrial community is continually searching new techniques to combine efficiency with cost benefits. Therefore, this work intends to analyse the application of screws on repair of composite laminates containing delaminations. It was found that this technique is beneficial for delaminations with lengths higher than 15 mm. For example, considering delaminations with 20 mm, the compressive load increases around 46.4% relatively to the delaminated samples. However, for small lengths, this technique is not viable due to the stress concentration induced by the hole.
