Improve my education on copper and copper alloy products [Australia] 

+++

Hello!

I am a fresh entrepreneur in non ferrous metals planning to deal with copper and copper alloy sheets. As I am still learning I wish to know what informations do I need to have in order to be a successful business man to deal with my customers. The reason is sometimes I do not understand the different terms my customers ask me. Which means I could loose business if I delay my offers by minor mistakes. Can you suggest me to how I could come out of this small problem or help me learn better for my business.

Thank you,

The Copper Development Association (www.copper.org) and the International Copper Association (www.copperinfo.com) have lots of useful information accessible from their sites. The Copper Development Centre, Australia, at http://www.copper.com.au/cdc/ has a publication which may help you: Metal techniques for craftsmen. Abstract: Weights and measures Circles and squares: circumference and area Standard copper sheet thickness Temperature conversion tables Melting points Coefficients of linear expansion of metals Specific gravities and weights of metals Glossary of terms
