Abstract

The textile fibers as “ fiberglass “ have highly efficient mechanical and properties .  it has been industrially used in several areas to achieve good insulation and high mechanical properties of the product .
Textile fibers were used in this research to achieve architectural objectives in the concrete mix.
Textile fibers were mixed with different proportions with cobalt  polyester . and different proportions of epoxy to achieve a high-strength mix used in architectural fields .
-          The research studies the effect of deference layers of glass fabrics on strengths with deferent amount of epoxy .
-           The research studies the effect of deference layers of glass fabrics on strengths with deferent amount of polyester / cobalt liquids.
-          The experimental measured by ( instron 5500R ) , ( Barcol Hardness tester model Barcol - impressor Barber – colman company USA ) ,       ( Portable Hardness Tester model D H T – 300 , instron 5500R ) .

Effect of increasing the layers of glass fabrics on tensile strength .

-          The research confirmed that the sample ( 1 Kg epoxy / 9 layers glass fabrics ) is the best . in case of covering all sample area by epoxy mix inside and outside the glass fabric layers , that lead to increasing the holding among the glass fabric layers .
-           

Effect of increasing the layers of glass fabrics on elongation .

-          The research confirmed that the sample ( 1 Kg polyester / 9 layers glass fabrics ) is the best , in case of covering all sample area by polyester liquid inside and outside the glass fabric layers , a few separate can happen among the glass fabric layers .

Effect of increasing the layers of glass fabrics on power bend bearing .

-          The research confirmed that the sample ( 1 Kg epoxy / 9 layers glass fabrics ) is the best , in case of covering all sample area by epoxy mix partially inside and holly outside the glass fabric layers , that lead to increasing the holding among the glass fabric layers .

Effect of increasing the layers of glass fabrics on hardness .

-          The research confirmed that the sample ( 1 Kg polyester / 3 layers glass fabrics ) is the best , in case of covering all sample area by polyester liquid partially inside and holly outside the glass fabric layers , that lead to increasing the holding among the glass fabric layers .
