Abstract

See full text

The invention refers to a composite structure for an aircraft comprising a panel and at least one stringer joined to a surface of the skin panel, the stringer having a foot and a web protruding from the foot, and a run-out section at one of its ends. The panel includes a plurality of stacked and co-cured plies of composite material, and at least part of the foot of the stringer at the run-out section, is inserted between two plies of the panel, and it is co-bonded, co-cured or secondary bonded with said two plies. The structure of the invention provides a reinforced join between the foot of the stringer and the skin panel, avoiding peeling or de-bonding problems, without substantially modifying the manufacturing process.
