Commonly used 3D printed samples are partially infilled to reduce time and cost of printing, with mechanical properties dependent on the infill. In this work, the influence of the percentage and pattern of infill in PLA printed samples on the elastic modulus and characteristic stresses was analyzed. The elastic modulus,  E , and characteristic stresses ( σ   0.2 ,  σ   4  and the maximum tensile stress) were determined for each sample using impulse excitation technique, IET, and uniaxial tensile tests. An apparent density was calculated for each pattern and infill percentage, and the mechanical parameters were studied as a function of such density. The results of IET obtained in different modes of vibration were analyzed and an apparent value of  E  was calculated. FEM simulations were carried out and the results were compared with the experimental ones. The mechanical properties for different infill percentages and infill patterns were studied by comparing the specific values of  E  and the stresses. Samples with higher infill percentages exhibit the best specific values of maximum stress and  E , but the sample with 20% infill has the highest specific yield stress and a good value of the specific  E  from flexural vibrations.
