Abstract
Weaving is one of the major textile technologies for making fabrics from yarns. This chapter describes the construction of 2D and 3D interwoven fabrics and their applications. Single layer fabrics also known as the 2D fabrics are mainly used for clothing and other domestic applications. Weave structures of the 2D fabrics are classified and classified in details, emphasising the elementary and derivative weaves. 3D woven structures, which lead to woven fabrics with noticeable thickness, attract much attention because of their diversity and the potential uses in many different industrial areas. 3D solid woven structures are explained in detail and some information is also provided for 3D cellular fabrics.
