Because of their low electrical conductivity (compared to metals) outside composites parts need to be protected against lightning.
A metal foil, or a wire mesh, is included in the lay-up of the the part to conduct the electrical charge in case the part is hit by a lightning.

Information about Material Properties
A new material can’t be employed in a design unless the engineer has access to reliable material properties and costs.• The need for materials data evolve as a design proceeds from
conceptual to detail design.
Conceptual design• Materials Selector
- Database for range of metals
- ASM Metals Reference Book
Detail design• At this stage, very precise data are required. Data are best found
in:- Data sheets issued by materials producers
- Actual tests performed on the material from which the part will be made
![Page 81: Materials and Processes Engineering Polytechnique Supplement to Case Study Course Daniel Menard 19 October 2004](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110401/56649e185503460f94b04af6/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)

Costs vs material selection
Prices for materials are complex:• Nature
• Transformation
• Competition
• Transportation
Many extra costs may be added:• Grades and tolerances
• Inspection & testing
• Size of order; cost of inventory vs just in time
• Packing, marking, storage conditions

Conclusions
The material and process selection methodology goes through a complex fight between multiple characteristics
The Design engineer must understand very well what are the true objectives and requirements in order to overweigh some of these characteristics
There are never perfect scenarios, at the end, the engineer must compromise between pros and cons
The objective is to have the best design possible with the functionality, acceptable quality, and a short manufacturing cycle time, all at the right cost.
