Description
Summary:In this study to compare the result of three common testing for the fabrication of fibreglass using conventional hand laminating to produce the test samples with the rectangular shape. The products were fabricated and tested using tensile testing, flexural testing and charpy impact testing. The result of finding was then compared to determine which are the most optimum in terms of strength. In this study, hand laminating method was used to develop all specimens with three flat panels in state of different types of curing agent. At least five specimens were used to be tested for each testing from the making method. All these data were analyzed and compared with all the kind of testing. Through this experiment, the best specimen of flat panel are determined and thus hopefully implemented in fibreglass boat industry.
