In Response To: Re: S&G: Stiffness compared to strip (Bill Hamm)

Looking at test samples is a valid and useful tool, but I don't think it completely answers the original question.

The original question is too vague to answer in few paragraphs of text, and it will never be completely answered in a forum setting. But there is no hope of understanding some of the answers if fundamental misconceptions about how common ply and strip layups respond to loading are not addressed.
