Chapter 7: Advanced Composite Materials Description of Composite Structures Introduction Composite materials are becoming more important in the construction of aerospace structures. Aircraft parts made from composite materials, such as fairings, spoilers, and flight controls, were developed during the 1960s ... their weight savings over aluminum parts. New generation large aircraft are designed with all composite fuselage and wing structures, and the repair of these advanced composite materials requires an in-depth knowledge of composite structures, materials, and tooling. The primary…

Repairability of Sheet Metal Structure The following criteria can be used to help an aircraft technician decide upon the repairability of a sheet metal structure: • Type of damage. Figure 4-170. Repair of cracks by stop-drilling. Type of original ... material. Location of the damage. • Type of repair required. • Tools and equipment available to make the repair. The following methods, procedures, and materials are only typical and should not be used as the authority for a repair. Structural Support During…

Stringer Repair The fuselage stringers extend from the nose of the aircraft to the tail, and the wing stringers extend from the fuselage to the wing tip. Surface control stringers usually extend the length of the control surface. The skin ... stringers. Stringers may be damaged by vibration, corrosion, or collision. Because stringers are made in many different shapes, repair procedures differ. The repair may require the use of preformed or extruded repair material, or it may require material formed…
