1 Wood Structures
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Which statement concerning wood decay is correct? | Any form or amount of decay is not permitted. |
| The strength of a well-designed and properly prepared wood splice joint is provided by the | glue |
| Which of the following conditions will determine acceptance of wood with mineral streaks? | Careful inspection fails to reveal any decay. |
| The I-beam wooden spar is routed to | reduce weight. |
| A faint line running across the grain of a wood spar generally indicates | compression failure. |
| When patching a plywood skin, abrupt changes in cross-sectional areas which will develop dangerous stress concentration should be avoided by using | circular or elliptical patches. |
| Where is information found concerning acceptable species substitutions for wood materials used in aircraft repair? | AC 43.13-1B. |
| Laminated wood spars may be substituted for solid rectangular wood spars | if the same quality wood is used in both. |
| Laminated wood is sometimes used in the construction of highly stressed aircraft components. This wood can be identified by its | parallel grain construction. |
| Compression failures in wood aircraft structures are characterized by buckling of the fibers that appear as streaks on the surface | at right angles to the grain. |
| Which statement about wood decay is correct? | Decay is not acceptable in any form or amount. |
| In cases of elongated bolt holes in a wood spar or cracks in the vicinity of boltholes, | a new section of spar should be spliced in or the spar replaced entirely. |
| Pin knot clusters are permitted in wood aircraft structure provided | they produce a small effect on grain direction. |
| Glue deterioration in wood aircraft structure is indicated | when a joint has separated and the glue surface shows only the imprint of the wood with no wood fibers clinging to the glue. |
| Any wooden member that has been overstressed is subject to which type of failure? | Compression. |
| The cantilever wing uses | no external bracing. |
