Damage caused in CFRP laminates by low energy impact of steel ball are investigated ultrasonically. Two types of laminated specimens having different stacking sequence are used as a target material. The effects of pre-bending on the behaviors of impact damage are specifically discussed. The initiation and progagation behaviors of delamination were largely dependent upon the bending rigidity of each specimen. Specimen C having higher bending rigidity produced larger delamination damage than the Specimen D having relatively low bending rigidity, however it was little for the Specimen C. Application of pre-bending increased the apparent bending rigidity of target during impacting, it produced delamination at lower impact energy level compared to the case of no preload.
