This paper describes a laminate curing process by hand lay-up of plain-weave woven Glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) composite composed of unsaturated polyester resin reinforced with E-glass fiber fabric, EWR-600B. Symmetrical and non-symmetrical ply orientation arrangements were introduced with...
