摘      要：A woven 3D composite is a new type of an advanced construction material. A prototype of three dimensional (3D) textile based on combination of a flat textile with two intersecting tunnels with a rectangular cross-section was constructed and the feasibility of this type of weaving was studied. Prototype of 3D woven fabric was made. Based on 3D textiles preforms composites for the mechanical trial was made. Composites used for strength tests were made using a vacuum infusion method. The basic elements of the composite, that is the flat part and the element with the rib, were selected for testing. This selection resulted from a complicated process of making a composite based on the entire fabric. A 3D composite, created through the lamination of two flat fabric, was also made for comparison. The study compared the material strength with and without rib reinforcement. Tensile and bending test was made. The analysis of the third composite was aimed at demonstrating the purpose of implementing the complicated weaving process. The laminate reinforced with 3D fabrics made from a unified weaving process is characterised by the best mechanical properties of the tested variants. The results can be considered to be encouraging.
