Abstract
The goal of this manual is to provide a series of basic tutorial chapters which describe practical details involved in applying various experimental techniques to composite materials and composite structures. These tutorial chapters are not intended to extend the state-of-the-art but to allow a well-trained, experienced individual to enter the world of experimental composite materials without inventing numerous wheels that have already been invented.
