The Fourth International Workshop on Jointed Structures was held from October 19-21, 2015, in Dartington, UK. Forty-five researchers from both the United States and international locations convened to discuss the recent progress of mechanical joints related research and associated efforts in addition to developing a new roadmap for the evolution of joints research from academic to industrial applications over the next five to ten years. The workshop itself was organized around four themes: applications that can benefit from joints research (applicability), repeatability and variability issues in experiments (repeatability), challenges in developing predictive models (predictability), and potential paths forward (way forward). The outcomes of the workshop are still in progress as the joints community develops a new roadmap for joints research; however, there are many aspects that are related here within. The ultimate goal of this research community is to develop a validated method for the design and analysis of dynamically loaded structures with frictional joints.
