STRUCTURE GENERAL (1)


AIRCRAFT MATERIALS
METALLIC MATERIALS
The basic A/C structure is made of aluminum alloys with stainless
steel and titanium alloys in specific areas.
COMPOSITE MATERIALS
Composite materials are used for primary and secondary structure.
Composite materials represent about 15% of the A/C structural weight.
Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) is mainly used for primary
structures, whilst Aramid Fiber Reinforced Plastic (AFRP) and Glass
Fiber Reinforced Plastic (GFRP) are only used for secondary
structures.

STRUCTURE PROTECTION
AIRCRAFT DRAINAGE
Wings and fuselage have different types of drains. Holes and gaps are
meant to be used for a natural drainage of the fluid collection points.
Drain holes are drilled before application of pretreatments. Remote
drains are used when natural drainage is not possible.
SURFACE PRETREATMENT
The protection of the structure against corrosion is achieved by means
of appropriate surface pretreatment of the metallic parts.
Aluminum alloys: the primary protection is generally a pure aluminum
cladding. The main pretreatment used is the unsealed chromic acid
anodizing.
Titanium alloys: surface interfaying with aluminum alloy parts are
zinc sprayed. The other titanium alloy surfaces are left bare. Titanium
fasteners are either sulphuric acid anodized or aluminum coated.
Composite materials are left bare.

Before the final paint system, all aluminum parts are primed. The
paint system used includes polyurethane primers and paint on the
external surfaces, and epoxy primers and polyurethane paint on the
internal surfaces. Anti-slip paint is the overwing escape zones.

A318 STRUCTURE DIFFERENCES
The Main structure differences between the A319/A320/A321 and the
A318 are due to the reduced length of the fuselage. There are several
general structure changes, laser beam welded structures and the vertical
stabilizer fin tip extension.
GENERAL STRUCTURE CHANGES
The main general structure changes are:
- on section 17, due to reduced length of the fuselage, the longitudinal
beams, the seat rails and the Z-profiles are replaced by new ones. The
crossbeams at FRame 52, FR53 and FR54 are removed. New
crossbeams are installed between FR55 to FR64,
- due to its location in the non-cylindrical part of the fuselage, a new
cargo sill box replaces the A319/A320/A321 one's, in section 17,
- on section 15, the A319/A320/A321 skin panels have been modified.
For weight reduction the A318 skin panels are thinner than the
A319/A320/A321 one's,
- the aft part of the belly fairing is modified due to an overlap with
non-cylindrical part of the fuselage. To avoid interference with cargo
compartment door, the A318 belly fairing is two panels shorter than
the A319/A320/A321 one's.

VERTICAL STABILIZER
Compared with A319/A320/A321 A/Cs, the A318 vertical stabilizer
fin tip is 750 mm (29,5 in.) longer.
The new developed tip is completely made of GFRP. There is an
additional fin leading edge panel. There is a new spar and a new CFRP
adaptor box, between the fin base and the fin tip.
The metallic rudder tip is longer by 100 mm in vertical direction. The
rudder trailing edge is increased in width by 50 mm.

LASER BEAM WELDING
The technology used for the A319/A320/A321 A/Cs is riveted
skin/stringer. On the A318, the skin/stringer connections are welded.
The new laser beam welded skin panels are installed in:
- the sections 13/14, FR24 to FR35, stringers 18 to 32,
- the sections 16/17, FR47/54 to FR64, stringers 32 to 41.
The skin panels are made thicker where the stringers are welded onto
them.

letters are used to indicate the doors and panels. The first letter
indicates which access door or panel it is, starting from the reference
axis (A=first, B=second, ..., G=seventh, etc...). The second letter
indicates the access door or panel location:
- T=top (upper) surface,
- B=bottom (lower) surface,
- R=right side,
- L=left side,
- Z=internal,
- F=floor panel,
- W=sidewall panel,

A/C SERVICING ARRANGEMENT
On the A318, note that special care must be taken during manual cargo
loading and unloading of the forward cargo compartment, because of the
close proximity of the engine air intake to the cargo loading vehicles
(conveyor belt).

NOTE: Note: The use of a self-propelled conveyor belt is not


recommended by Airbus Industrie.
The main difference between the A318/A319 and the A320/A321
servicing arrangement is that the A320 and A321 can have a bulk loader
on the bulk cargo door.

ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (3)


ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE PROBLEMS
Electro Static Discharge (ESD) is generated by rubbing materials with
each other. By moving over plastic materials (synthetic fibers), wearing
synthetic fiber clothing, electrical charges build up on the body. Thus
voltages of 12000 to 35000 volts can develop on a person. Touching
connector pins of computer units, a discharge path is formed through
wiring and components. Integrated Circuit (IC) chips can be partly
damaged or totally destroyed. Rubbing materials from the "tribo-electris"
series against each other and then separating them from each other causes
a build-up of electrostatic charges. If the materials are far apart in the
series, there will be a higher electric charge.

COMPUTER REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION (3)


COMPUTER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
Before starting a computer removal/installation procedure, the A/C has
to be set-up for maintenance. The first task is to make sure that the ground
service network is energized and the access door is open and accessible.
Then make sure that the C/Bs listed in the removal of the computer
procedure of Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM) is open. The first
action is to loosen the nut and then to lower the nut. When the nut is
lowered, pull the computer on its rack to disconnect the electrical
