Summary[edit]

Description
English: Example of fibrous reinforcement for thermoset resins or composite materials: two glass fabrics with increasing area density (220 and 550 g/m2); orientation of fiberglass: 0 and 90° (most common); weave pattern: plain (taffeta).
The big tissue (right) provides more stiffness but its applicability is worse with the resin and it is thicker therefore heavier.
Français : Exemple de renfort fibreux pour résines thermodurcissables ou pour matériaux composites : deux tissus de verre de grammage croissant (220 et 550 g/m2, de gauche à droite) (appelés dans la profession « petite et grosse mèche » pour les différencier) ; orientation des fibres de verre : 0 et 90° (cas le plus courant) ; mode de tissage : toile (taffetas).
Le tissu de droite apporte plus de renfort, mais il s'imprègne moins bien avec la résine et est plus épais donc plus lourd.

This image has currency in it to indicate scale.

Using coins for scale is discouraged as it will require people unfamiliar with them to look up the dimensions or guess, both of which defeat the purpose of the object in the first place. Coins can also reinforce a geographical bias, and some coins' designs are copyrighted.

Ideally, a photograph should include a ruler with the subject (example) or an added scale marking. SI ("metric") units are the most commonly used worldwide (see meter and centimeter).
