Introduction to Designing With Aluminium Extrusions in Today's Aircraft

Abstract

THE desire to provide today's aircraft with high payload and long range performance capabilities has led to the search for new and innovative ways of reducing weight and increasing the strength of materials used in their construction. Justin Ratcliffe of The Shapemakers explains the role of aluminium extrusions in these developments.
