The mechanical properties of hybrid composite material i.e. polyester matrix composites (ECMAS 411) reinforced with BS3496 E-glass fibres i.e. woven roving, chopped strand mat (CSM) fibers were evaluated. There are indications that the incorporation of both glass fibers into a single matrix which is polyester resin will stabilize mechanical properties and lowering manufacturing costs. In this research the impact strength, tensile strength, flexural strength, and compressive strength of GFRP hybrid composite material were studied.
