Analisa Kekuatan Tarik Komposit Serat Pelepah Pisang Sebagai Alternatif Untuk Laminasi Kapal Ikan

Fishing boats are vessels that almost 90% of the building materials made wood. The nature wood is easily weathered and attacked by destroying organisms causes fishing with to be damaged. Banana trees plants thrive in Indonesia. In addition fruit, banana tree leaves part often used for reprocessing. However, midrib cannot utilized optimally will become unused waste. Therefore, author has an innovation using fiber as a composite material ship lamination material. researchers need do test, namely tensile test variations thickness 1 layer, 2 layers, 3 layers on polyester resin measure strength value which refers ASTM 638-02a standard.
