A Helically wrapped structure is a hollow pipe structure that is made from a metal strip and the overlapping interfaces are adhesively joined. It is yet unknown how to determine the quasi-static strength and predict the fatigue life of this structure. A method was developed to determine whether either the adherend or the adhesive is critical to determine the strength and fatigue life. A machine was made to create the helically wrapped structure and tested for validation. It was found that the adherend is critical instead of the adhesive.
