Abstract
The transverse tensile strength of carbon-reinforced plastics is estimated on the basis of the results of bending tests on open rings and segments. It is shown that structural discontinuities due to technological factors sharply reduce the transverse tensile strength of carbon-reinforced plastics. The radial stresses have an important influence on the strength of segments tested in three-point bending.
