Abstract: The analysis of tensile strength with different combination material of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) under seawater. Fiber reinforced polymer are composite materials made out hardening or room temperature curing resin as matrix together with reinforcement materials. Seawater is salty and it has different density with fresh water, lake or river. Floating structure is something that floats on the surface of a fluid or space without sinking. The specimens or samples were made from the different combination of FRP material which is tissue mat, chopped strand mat, woven roving, resin, catalyst and color pigment. An immersion test was run in minimum of 30 days. The tensile test was carried out was based an axial stress test for the same size specimens of five for each different combination of material. This study has identified that the combination of specimens 3 has the highest tensile test.
