57-00 WINGS

GENERAL

The aircraft wing is a continuous structure going through the fuselage and is
divided into three parts:
 the center wing,
 the left outer wing,
 and the right outer wing.

The center wing box supplies cantilever attachment for the outer wings and
applies its loads onto the fuselage structure.

57-10 CENTER WING

CENTER WING BOX GENERAL ARRANGEMENT

The center wing is installed in the center fuselage between the main Frames
40 and 47, and makes an integral fuel tank.

The center wing box structure includes:

 the front, center and rear spars respectively located at frames (Fr) 40,
42 and 47,
 top and bottom skin panels,
 the two main frames 40 and 47,
 internal carbon-fiber rods,
 the left rib 1 and the right rib 1,
 frame connection fittings,
 longitudinal beams.

There are two triangular openings in the rear spar to enable the access for
maintenance.

WING ROOT JOINT

The outer wing boxes are connected to the center wing box at Rib 1. An
upper cruciform fitting makes the junction between:
 the center wing box and the outer wing box top skin panels,
 the fuselage and Rib 1.

A lower triform fitting makes the junction between center wing box panels,
outer wing box bottom skin panels and Rib 1. The assembly is secured by a
lower butt-strap.

STRUCTURE LAYOUT

Each outer wing box top and bottom skins include four integrally machined
panels. The center skins run from the root to Rib 27. The top and bottom skin
panels extend on a short distance in the front of the front spar and provide
part of the attachment for the fixed leading edge structure. Behind the rear
spar, the rear skin panel extends towards the aft end of the main landing gear
pick-up forging, and makes the top and bottom skins of the cantilever box
structure. The top and bottom skins are stiffened by machined stringer
profiles. There are thirty-three openings (manholes), in the No. 2 and No. 4
bottom skin panels, which give access into the outer wing box. To get
stronger bottom skin panels, these panels are made thicker in the area
around the manholes (and the holes for the fuel pumps).

The wing spars are machined from aluminum alloy. They give strength to the
wing box. The front and the rear spars extend from Rib 1 to Rib 39. The
center spar extends from Rib 1 to outboard of Rib 11. The front and the rear
spars are made of three parts (inner, mid and outer spars). Joint plates
connect these spars together to make a continuous structure. The front spar
joints are located at Ribs 12 and 27. The rear spar joints are located at Ribs 9
and 27.

There are thirty-eight ribs, machined from aluminum alloy, installed in the
wing box of each outer wing (Ribs 2 thru 39). The center wing-to-outer wing
joint is made at Rib 1. Rib 1 is the rib that closes the center wing box.

ACCESS HOLES / COVERS

There are thirty-three access covers (panels) installed in the bottom skin
panels of the wing box. This number includes the NACA duct door and the
bursting disc panel. All the panels close the openings that give access to the
wing box. Bolts attach the load-carrying access panels to the bottom skin
panels of the wing. Bolts and clamp rings attach the non-load carrying panels
to the bottom skin panels of the wing.

There are:
 twenty-one non load-carrying access panels between Rib 1 and Rib
27,
 eleven load-carrying access panels between Rib 27 and Rib 39.

MAIN LANDING GEAR ATTACHMENT STRUCTURE

The Main Landing Gear (MLG) is attached to the wing box structure via the
following fittings:
 the gear support rib (gear rib 6), which makes the aft attachment,
 the pintle fitting, which makes the forward attachment,
 the fitting for the side stay (side stay attachment fitting),
 the jack fitting for the MLG actuating cylinder (retraction jack fitting).

The gear support rib is machined from an aluminum alloy forging and is
attached to:
 the aft face of the rear spar at Rib 6,
 the extended top and bottom wing skin panels,
 the false rear spar.

The pintle fitting is made from titanium alloy and attached at Rib 5.

The side-stay fitting is made from aluminum alloy and is attached between
Rib 2 and Rib 3.

PYLON ATTACHMENT STRUCTURE

There are forward and rear attachment fittings on the wing box for each
engine pylon.

Forward attachment fittings are at the front spar, between Ribs 10 and 10A
for the inboard pylon. The forward attachment for the pylon has a bracket
assembly that absorbs the vertical loads and a thrust fitting (spigot fitting) that
absorbs thrust and side loads from the engine.

The bracket assembly, made of titanium alloy, is attached to the forward face
of the front spar and the top skin of the wing (the skin extends forward of the
front spar).

The thrust fitting is made of titanium alloy and has a steel pin. Bolts attach the
fitting to the bottom face of the bracket assembly through the reinforcing and
the bottom skin.

The rear attachment fittings are located between Ribs 10 and 10A (for the
inboard pylon).

The rear attachment is a single-lug bracket.

The inboard flap is supported by a fuselage track and carriage (track 1) and
one wing tack and carriage (track 2). Both are driven. It is of classical
aluminum alloy construction, with an aluminum sandwich trailing edge. A
rubbing strip made of stainless steel is bonded to the outer surface of the top
skin. A steel trunnion titanium casting is attached to the inboard end of the
flap.

The outboard flap is supported by three wing tracks and carriages (tracks 3,
4, 5). All tracks are driven. The outer flap has a main box structure, a carbon
fiber leading edge and a segmented aluminum sandwich trailing edge.

The main box structure includes:

 a top and a bottom skin panels stiffened by integrated stringers, both
made of solid laminate carbon fiber,
 ribs, made of solid laminate carbon fiber, except in load introduction
areas, were machined aluminum ribs are used (end ribs and track
