The Structural Certification of Aircraft composite Interiors Courses
The Structural certification of aircraft composite interiors, stowage unit
INTERFACE LOADS.
Attended or Internship
Duration: Minimum 4 weeks (attended) to 3 months (part time attendance).
Stress or Structural certification engineers must produce structural analytical reports that validate the structural safety of aircraft interior (composite) structures such as stowage units.
The stowage unit interface load report and the stress analysis report are two important certification documents, essential in supporting the structural integrity and safety of aircraft interior composite structures.
By the end of this stowage unit interface load course the student will have produced the certification document (report) that they can show to potential employers.
They will be confident of the certification document procedure and fluent in discussing any aspect of their work.
This is a complete course (that cannot be done in less time) that packages the derivation of the interface loads and the stress analysis for a stowage unit (requires the student to have done the interface load derivation course first).
The student will obtain hands on experience of constructing a composite finite element analysis model (FEA) of the stowage unit and will perform Nastran structural analysis to obtain the interface loads and write the interface certification report.
They will then progress to make the stress analysis and write the stress analysis certification report.
The following content will be covered:
- Typical stowage unit structure
- Materials, joints & fasteners
- Stowage unit loading technique
- Interface loads
- Mass check procedure
- Mass balance check
- FEA stowage modelling in FEMAP & Patran (Nastran)
- Quality control of modelling
- The structure report

Courses Duration:

The Structural certification of aircraft composite interiors, stowage unit
STRESS Analysis.
Attended or Internship
Duration: Minimum 4 weeks (attended) to 3 months (part time attendance).
Stress Certification Engineers must produce stress analytical reports that validate the structural safety of aircraft interior (composite) structures such as stowage units and galleys.
The Aircraft interiors industry is valued at £20b worldwide by 2020.
There are at least six major aircraft interior design and manufacturers, mainly located in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Austria, Japan and USA.
The student will obtain hands on experience of running the interface load Finite Element Model (FEA) in Nastran and acquire stress and deflection data.
They will stress analyse in MathCad (or similar), the major composite and metallic parts using the loadcase data.
It is important that the student first attends the Interface Loads Derivation course to fully appreciate this Stress Analysis course.
Finally, the student will write the contents of a typical Stowage Unit Stress Certification Report which will be reviewed and commented on by the course director.
This course has been designed (by the course director) to ensure that the student will have an impressive amount of their own work to show potential employers that he can do the job.
The student’s CV will echo all the major keywords (ideally this course follows the certification Interface Loads report).
The following content will be covered:
- Typical Stowage Unit Structure
- Materials, Joints & Fasteners
- Stowage Unit Loading Technique
- Interface Loads
- Mass Check Procedure
- Mass Balance Check
- FEA Stowage Modelling in FEMAP & Patran (Nastran)
- Quality control of modelling
- Stress Analysis of Metal Components
- Stress Analysis of Composite Components
- The Structure Report
