Care and Repair of Advanced Composites was written to meet the informational needs of composite repair technicians who repair aircraft components and structures for return to airline service. It supplements the practical work required to achieve the necessary skill level in performing these repairs.

A worldwide reference for repair technicians and design engineers, the book is an outgrowth of the course syllabus developed by the Training Task Group of SAE's Commercial Aircraft Composite Repair Committee (CACRC) which was published as SAE AIR 4938, Composite and Bonded Structure Technician Specialist Training Document. Care and Repair of Advanced Composites offers a comprehensive, in-depth look at the principal materials and processes involved in manufacturing, inspecting, and repairing advanced composite aircraft structures.

Although Care and Repair of Advanced Composites has been written primarily for use in aircraft repair, all composite repair technicians regardless of the type of vehicle or component they work on, will benefit from reading this book. Among the industries this includes are: automotive, marine, railway, wind power generation, and sporting goods.
