Abstract
The areally extended composite material ( ) contains fibers ( ) which are impregnated with plastic ( ). The composite material comprises at least two arrays of parallel fiber cords ( ) which extend in different directions and which form a web, mesh or grid. The fiber cords can be bundle-like or band-like. The fibers ( ) of a first array ( ) are impregnated with substantially more plastic ( ) than the fibers ( ) of a second and possibly of a further array ( ). The composite material ( ) is stiff in the direction of the fibers of the first array and is flexible transversely to this direction. Openings advantageously exist between the fiber cords.
