CD - Resistant Materials V2 Overview

Description:Designed by UK teachers, Resistant Materials Version 2 builds on the success of the highly acclaimed first program and goes much further.
Database, spreadsheet and word processing applications are combined in one easy to use program that has been expanded to include most of the materials, components and fittings that Design Technology students may wish to use.
