We estimate effects of ply thickness in mechanical properties and damage evolution of CFRP angle-ply laminates under various tensile loading. It should be noted that the laminate thickness is almost the same, but the ply thickness are quite different. Monotonic tensile tests , cyclic loading-unloading tensile tests and stress relaxation tensile tests are performed on [(±)_12]_s(t-O.O5prepregx48plies), [(±)_4]_s(t-O.15prepregxl6plies) and [(+θ_4/(-θ)_4]_s (t-0.15prepregxl6plies) T700SC/2500 carbon/epoxy laminates with various fiber directions (θ=30, 40, 45, 50 and 67.5°) .Ply thickness is expressed as t-0 05, t-0 15 and t-0 6, respectively. Damage evolution can be determined by cyclic loading-unloading tests. We use mesoscale damage model to investigate damage evolution in CFRP laminates. We discuss effect of ply thickness on mechanical property of angle-ply laminates. Laminates have thin ply thickness showed high strength and fracture strain.
