Fabrics either natural or industrial are thought to be promising alternative for steel as reinforcement of concrete or cement elements, especially for light-weight structures. Cotton is one of the famous crops widely planted in Egypt and, in the same time, cotton woven fabrics include many structures and designs. The structure of any fabric is thought to have a great influence upon its behavior according to its effect upon the mechanical properties of the textile. Cotton itself, according to its natural and mechanical properties, cannot be considered as possible alternative for reinforcing or strengthening of cement elements. One of the reasons is the short life of cotton fabrics. The aim of this research, through an experimental program, is to study the effect of the fabric structure and the number of fabric layers upon the behavior of fabric-cement composite elements. Seven structures of cement-cotton woven fabrics are used and their composites with cement are tested in tension, compression, and bending. It was found that using cotton woven fabrics improves the behavior and the strength in both tension and bending. However, when used in compression, layered fabrics decrease the compressive strength of the cement elements. The validity of using cotton woven fabrics in fabric-cement composites in both tension and bending, regarding cotton disadvantages, means the validity of many other textile fabrics that have much better mechanical properties than cotton woven fabrics.
