  • Description: This paper is focused on the use of special composite materials for the construction of aircraft components. It focuses on measuring and testing the strength of reinforced composite materials used in damaged aircraft parts repairs. To determine the layer required to repair a part of the aircraft, it is necessary to know the strength limit of the material and its parts. The article describes experimental measurements of manufactured composite samples that have been subjected to tensile stress. Aim of the performed tensile tests was to determine the maximum tensile stress that the composite materials are able to transmit until they are damaged. Measurement determining the maximum stress level is important to ensure the required safety of the aircraft structure on which the composite structure was repaired.
