Stitched Fabric

Use Fabric Builder to create a stitched fabric.

From Page 1 of the Fabric Builder dialog, choose Stitched Fabric and select Next, Page 2 will become visible as shown below.

This page allows you to choose a unidirectional, biaxial, double-bias, triaxial, or quadraxial layup.
Note: The stitched layups are not symmetric and the (%/%) in each layup define the percent fiber for each angle in the layup.

Once you select a layup, you will be brought to the micromechanics page as seen previously. At this point, Fabric Builder will follow similar steps as described in the Random Continuous Mat section.
