heal.abstract	The stiffness and strength of a composite material in form of laminate is obtained from the properties of the constituent laminae. The stacking sequence of the laminate affects the mechanical behavior. The interface between different laminae is also an important factor, since it influences the stresses that are developed in the laminate, and hence the strengths. In this study, a theoretical investigation of the mechanical behavior of symmetrical laminates made of isotropic layers [Lexan (PCBA) and Plexiglas (PMMA)] was attempted. An analysis based on the lamination theory was performed to determine the stress distribution and strains as well as the elastic constants. Experimental measurements with specimens made of laminates with different stacking sequences were carried out. The obtained values were compared with the theoretical values given by the lamination theory and mechanics of materials approach. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.	en
