Abstract
An investigation was conducted to study the transverse tensile strength of orthotropic symmetric laminated composites employing the elastic theory and fracture mechanics. The influence of 90°. laminae thickness and orientation of the adjacent laminate were the primary concern. A direct relation between the in situ transverse tensile strength and the 90°. laminate thickness and the degree of adjacent constraint lays was derived. The theoretical calculation was compared with the experimental data of Flaggs's and an excellent agreement was found between them.
