Reference Material Question

Reference Material Question

Reference Material Question

(OP)
Does anyone know any good reference books, programs, etc. for reading blueprints for composite material components?  My history in the industry has focused on metallic components up to this point, however a recent job change has brought composites into the picture as well.  I have a small amount of educational background on composites but it is mainly theory and has been a little while ago.  Thanks for any help/advice.

John
