						 Natural and synthetic fibre has gained wide application in science and technology. They are now used as reinforcement material for composites 
  in automobile, aviation, textile, apparel and other related industries. In spite of their inherent drawbacks (disposal method, anisotropic nature, 
  production cost and technical complexities) natural fibres present a wide range of advantages ranging from availability, eco-friendliness and a 
  reasonable competitiveness with sheet metals and other counterparts. Natural fibres, in particular, offer light weight as well as good strength when 
  used both as a reinforcement material in various matrix configurations. In this article, the behaviour and response of samples of a 4-ply viscose 
  rayon material loaded in tension is investigated. The response of viscose-rayon yarn in various tensile loading configurations was carried out. Two
