An observation of damage in two different laminates (one symmetric and another unsymmetric) of 8HS fabric composites is made in tensile loading. The damage initiation seems to controlled by the state of local stress field, not by the ply stacking of the laminates. Further, the damage initiation occurred in the vicinity of yarn crimping.
