Parts of an aircraft and their functions

Fuselage Main body of airplane Pilot & cargo compartments Generally constructed in two or more sections Carries accessories and other equipments Includes numerous access doors, inspection plates, landing wheel wells, and other openings

Fuselage Structure BASIC STRUCTURE TYPES TRUSS TYPE - PRATT TRUSS - WARREN TRUSS MONOCOQUE SEMI-MONOCOQUE

TRUSS TYPE Most early aircraft used this technique with wood and wire trusses and this type of structure is still in use in many lightweight aircraft using welded steel tube trusses. The truss type fuselage frame is assembled with members forming a rigid frame e.g. beams, bar, tube etc… Primary members of the truss are 4 longerons. There are two types of truss structure. - PRATT TRUSS - WARREN TRUSS

PRATT TRUSS Early days Wooden or metal structure Great weight Difficult to streamline Box with tubular longerons + vertical members Diagonal members of tubing or solid rods

WARREN TRUSS Longerons + only Diagonal Members Force transfer to every others structure Capable to carry tension + compression Reduce amount of webs work More space , strength , rigidity Better streamline

MONOCOQUE In this method, the exterior surface of the fuselage is also the primary structure. A typical early form of this was built using molded plywood. A later form of this structure uses fiberglass cloth impregnated with polyester or epoxy resin, instead of plywood, as the skin.

SEMI-MONOCOQUE This is the preferred method of constructing an all-aluminum fuselage. First, a series of frames in the shape of the fuselage cross sections are held in position on a rigid fixture, or jig. These frames are then joined with lightweight longitudinal elements called stringers. These are in turn covered with a skin of sheet aluminum, attached by riveting or by bonding with special adhesives. Most modern large aircraft are built using this technique, but use several large sections constructed in this fashion which are then joined with fasteners to form the complete fuselage.

The most common airframe construction is semi-monocoque
