Structural parameters affecting tear strength of the fabrics tents

The tearing strength is more vital in heavy duty fabrics. So it is important to know the effects of the fabric structural parameters on the tearing resistance of these types of fabrics. In this work the effects of some fabric structural parameters were studied on the tearing properties of fabrics us...

So it is important to know the effects of the fabric structural parameters on the tearing resistance of these types of fabrics. In this work the effects of some fabric structural parameters were studied on the tearing properties of fabrics used in tents. The experimental work was divided into two parts; the first part was to study the effect of fabric design on the tearing strength. Six fabric designs of the same type of fiber were used. They were of different specific tightness. The second part was to produce fabrics which are used in tents with different specifications. Different sets of fabric specimens were prepared. These specimens were tested for tearing resistance, to study the effects of these structural parameters on the tearing resistance of the fabrics. The effects of the structural parameters on the tearing strength were deduced.
