Abstract: A bias fabric is provided in that it is in the form of a cloth of length (L) and of finite width (l), being constructed by interlaced yarns (2, 3) extending in respective directions (D and d) that are oblique relative to the length (L), and each of which presents no knotting. The invention is applicable to engineering fabrics based on flat yarns.

Abstract: A woven fabric to be used in formation of a composite material includes multifilament warp and weft threads. Each of the warp threads and the weft threads have a total weight less than 80% of the weight of the fabric. The woven warp and weft threads have O twist/m and a torsion no greater than an original torsion of the threads before weaving. Each woven warp and weft thread has a width over the entire length thereof that is greater than or equal to an original width before weaving. The fabric is woven to have a given weight per unit area and a fiber volume ratio that is approximately constant throughout the fabric and that is satisfactory for use of the fabric in a composite material. The warp and weft threads of a yarn count that is greater than a yarn count traditionally used to achieve the fiber volume ratio for the given weight per unit area.

Abstract: A multilayer textile article for the production of laminated materials has layers each consisting of a two-directional cloth, the layers being joined together by a third thread extending in a direction inclined to the direction in which the threads of the layers extend. According to the invention the third thread forms a continuous stitching (C), the stitching extending helically from one end of the layers to the other.
