Present work mainly deals with the bending analysis of inter-ply hybrid composite plate which is made by the combination of one natural and two synthetic unidirectional fabrics and epoxy resin. Finite element method is used to predict the bending behavior of composite plate with [(0/90)3]S , [(45/-45)3]S,[(30/-60)3]S symmetrical and [(0/90)3]US, [(45/-45)3]US, [(30/-60)3]US un-symmetrical ply orientation and FCA, FAC, CFA, CAF, AFC and ACF ply sequence (order) . Modelling and analysis of composite plate are performed in ANSYS 16.0 software to determine the best ply orientation and sequence of ply under three point bend test on the basis of total deformation.It is concluded that symmetric [(0/90)3]s ply orientation and CAF ply sequence is best suited for bending of composite plate in terms of lowest total deformation.
