This paper presents the measurement results of deformations of glued joints applied in construction of rail vehicles. The joint materials and technology of making used were the same as in the technological process used in the manufacturing of such vehicles. The specimens prepared were divided into eight groups and subjected to different types of aging according to guidelines specified in regulations for examinations obligatorily performed by rail vehicle manufacturers. Measurements of deformations during shearing test of glued joint were performed. The results obtained exhibited the existence of impact of the way the glued joint ages on its properties. Different types of aging of specimens effect in the loss of joint strength and its deformability.
