In this paper, this study aims at the evaluation on the characteristics of CFRP laminate plates using a falling weight impact tester. The experiment was conducted on several laminates of different orientation. A system was built far measur- ing the impact strength of CFRP laminates in consideration of stress wave propagation theory using a falling weight impact tester. Delamination areas of impacted specimens for the different ply orientation were measured with ultrasonic C- scanner to find correlation between impact energy and delamination area. Absorbed energy of quasi-isotropic specimen having flour interfaces was higher than that of orthotropic laminates with two interfaces. The more interfaces, the greater the energy absorbed. The absorbed energy oft hybrid specimen containing a GFRP layer was higher than that of normal specimens.
