Abstract
A metal-polymer-metal laminate is made by joining adjacent laminate sections in a staggered relationship. Terminal portions of metal layers in a first laminate section are opposed to ends of fiber-reinforced polymer layers in a second laminate section. End portions of fiber-reinforced polymer layers in the first laminate section are opposed to ends of metal layers in a second laminate section. The two laminate sections are then joined by an adhesive layer.
