In Response To: Re: The Wood Matters - You are right (Andreas)

: Great work Nick.

Sam McFadden did the work. I just supplied some samples and posted the results.

Obviously as you increase the percentage of the layup that is glass, the amount of strength contributed by the glass will increase. But interestingly the fact that one side of the sample given had 1 layer of 6 oz and the otherside had 2 layers did not appear to effect the slope of the curve when the samples were bent in the other direction. In other words the location of the reinforcement different layer relative to the load did not appear to effect the stiffness. The point of final failure was all over the place so with the number of samples Sam had to test it is hard to see the relative importance of the reinforcement location on strength.
