This book will introduce the non-engineer builder or technician to the general principles and techniques used in composite aircraft construction. The assumption is made that the reader is a complete beginner with no prior knowledge of composite materials, procedures or technology.

This book discusses three general areas:
  1. Basic theory of strong materials, structures and composites.
  2. Practical composite materials and structures in small aircraft.
  3. Construction techniques used by the homebuilder and by prefabricated kit manufacturers.

Read this book if you are considering building either a manufactured kit or an aircraft design from plans using any technology. Composite aircraft structures are designed differently from those using earlier technologies such as wood or metal. You will understand those differences, including the advantages of building with composites.

Topics include:

  • Strong Materials
  • Forces in Structures
  • Nature of Composite Materials
  • Theory of Structural Sandwich
  • Structural Fibers and Matrices
  • Core Materials
  • Joining Structures
  • Solid Core Structures
  • Moldless Tools and Techniques
  • Moldless Core Layups
  • Hollow Structures
  • Making Molds
  • Using Molds and Vacuum
