- Abstract
As an alternative to materials, composite are currently the subject of extensive research due to their strength, stiffness, lightweight, resistance to corrosion, and ease of manufacturing. This study aims to compare the shear strengths of thermosetting composite materials made of ramie and rami-E-glass fiber hybrid as reinforcement and epoxy as matrix with fiber orientation variations of ±45° and (0°,90°)s which refers to the ASTM D5379 standard. Hand lay-up and vacuum bagging are used to create composite specimens. Meanwhile, the method for analyzing composite specimen test results is the Weibull distribution to determine its reliability at 50% and 90%. Based on the research results, it show that the shear strength of the ramie-E-glass/epoxy fiber hybrid thermosetting composite with a fiber orientation of ±45° has the highest shear strength when compared with the orientation of (0°,90°)s. The material has the potential to be used as an alternative material for application in the outer skin structure that can withstand shear loads for components in the automotive and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) industries automotive and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) industries.
