Abstract
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of structural properties of yarn and fabric such as; raw materials, weft setting and fabric construction on the breaking strength, elongation at break and tear strength of upholstery double fabrics. For this purpose, double woven fabric samples with three different weft densities and of three different weave patterns with two types of warp and weft yarns, whose raw materials were different, were manufactured. The physical properties of woven fabric samples were determined by relevant tests. The effect of the fibre type, weft setting and weave pattern on the physical properties of upholstery fabrics were investigated by variance analysis by means of SPSS 15.0. Findings and evaluations of the study have been given in detail in the paper.
