Abstract
During a wide-ranging experimental study of compression testing of uni directional fiber-reinforced plastics (FRP), covering several material s and test methods, it became apparent that the variability of data co uld be reduced by adopting a rigorous and consistent approach to all p hases of specimen production. Details are given of the procedures adop ted, together with results from an associated parameter study.
