Woven FG will be better in shear and stronger in general(tension,compression,bending etc) than random fibers like Filon. Azdel, Lamilux, FRP epoxy or polyester will all work for sidewall. It will be next to impossible to get mechanical properties like shear strength from their web sites so you will have to call and talk to their technical dept if shear strength is important to your application..wanderingaimlessly wrote:
They have basically no structural strength, at least in the vervion I used, but there should be others which may work for you.
These are used for sheathing, so I need shear strength to prevent the walls from racking front to back.
