Abstract
The results of scale model tests for predicting variables in the stren gths of fibre reinforced plastic (FRP) laminates are presented. Classi cal laws of similitude are applied to fabricate and test replica model specimens. These are used in turn to identify scaling effects in the loading response, strength and model of failure.
