Under real operating conditions, assemblies and products made of composites are subjected to combined static and cyclic loads. At the planning stage, an important problem is the selection of the materials to be used and an estimate of the load-bearing capacity by complex investigation of their physicomechanical properties. In the present work, the authors studied experimentally the characteristics of strength under static uniaxial and combined loading and the effect of static shear stresses on the compressive fatigue limit of glass-fabric reinforced plastic. 7 refs., 7 figs., 2 tabs.
