Analysis of Tensile Strength on Various Layer Stack Sequence of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP)

This paper presents the analysis of tensile strength on various layer stack sequence of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP). FRP is a composite material which made of hardened or room temperature treated resin as medium. The FRP is composed with particular reinforcement materials in order to evaluate the strength. The specimens or samples were made from different combination of FRP materials which involved resin, tissue mat, chopped strand mat, woven roving, resin, catalyst, and colour pigment. The Tensile Test is carried out based on the Axial Stress Test for the same size specimen in five different combination of materials. This study has identified that the combination of Specimen 3, which combined woven roving, resin and colour pigment as the FRP materials has acquired the highest tensile strength.
