Abstract: Composite material market is exponentially growing and finding its application in almost every walks of life. Here we prepared three composites of different stacking sequences and fibre reinforcement for our experiment. We have used areca, jute and glass fibres for making a composite with epoxy as resin. Our composites had ten layers of fibre of different stacking sequence for every specimen. Hand layup technique was used for preparing the material. Compression moulding was done on the stacked laminates and the final product was measured to be 30x30x3 mm. the composite then was converted different specimens as per ASTM standards. The tensile and flexural test was done for every combination of specimen and in three different combinations jute+glassfibre reinforced matrix was found to have more tensile and flexural properties. Graphical results were obtained for the tests and analysed and final result was drafted.
