The fabric developed from honeycomb weave is a multilayer fabric having variable strength and elongation. Properties of these structures depend on the cell size of the honeycomb weave. The aim of the research is to identify the effect of cell size on the tensile strength in terms of breaking force and elongation of the honeycomb weave structures. In this paper, three different cell sizes of honeycomb fabrics were created and analysed in both warp and weft direction for its tensile properties. Analysis shows significant results in the warp direction and weft direction of honeycomb fabric. © 2019 Inst. Nat. Cercetare-Dezvoltare Text. Pielarie. All rights reserved.
