Abstract
A continuous reinforcing fiber sheet in which reinforcing fibers are arranged at an arbitrary angle to the main axis. The continuous reinforcing fiber sheet is well applicable to pultrusion forming without the risk of the reinforcing fibers being dispersed. This permits use of the continuous reinforcing fiber sheet in a long fiber-reinforced plastic structural member having remarkably improved torsional rigidity. The continuous reinforcing fiber sheet has a continuous resin-penetrable support sheet and a reinforcing fiber layer held by the resin-penetrable support sheet . Long reinforcing fibers in the reinforcing fiber layer have substantially a certain length (F) and are arranged in the longitudinal direction of the resin-penetrable support sheet at a prescribed angle (&agr;) to the longitudinal direction of the resin-penetrable support sheet
