4. ZONE DIAGRAM
4.1. General
The airplane has eight major zones to help you find and identify the airplane
components and parts. The major zones are divided into subzones and the
subzones into zones. These are the major zones:
- 100 - lower half of the fuselage
- 200 - upper half of the fuselage
- 300 - empennage
- 400 - powerplant and nacelle struts
- 500 - left wing
- 600 - right wing
- 700 - landing gear and landing gear doors
- 800 - doors.

8. COMPOSITES
8.1. General
Some airplane structure is made of composite materials that are resistant to
damage and corrosion and decrease airplane weight. Composite materials
are layers of strong fibers of carbon or fiberglass in a mixture of plastic resin.
Components made of composite materials use laminations or mix layers of
composite materials with a honeycomb core to make a sandwich construction.
Composite Materials
The airplane structure uses composite materials for their high strength
to weight ratio. Weight reduction is made by use of carbon fiber and
advanced fiber composite materials. Composite materials also provide these
improvements:
- Fatigue protection
- Corrosion protection
- Sonic Resistance
- Aerodynamic surfaces.
EFFECTIVITY
ALL
Carbon Fiber
Carbon fiber is used for these primary movable surfaces:
- Ailerons
- Elevators
- Rudder
- Spoilers
- Trailing edge flaps.
Carbon reinforced fiberglass hybrids are used for secondary fairing structures.
Corrosion Protection
Special protective systems are used to prevent galvanic corrosion of aluminum
components in contact with carbon materials. Each aluminum component is
anodized, primed and enameled. An isolating sealant is on all contact
surfaces at assembly and on all fasteners. Corrosion resistant steel or titanium
is used with carbon fiber components.

8. FUSELAGE
8.1. Internal Structure
Fuselage Components
The fuselage is a pressurized semi-monocoque structure made primarily of
aluminum alloys.
Bulkheads
Pressure bulkheads at the forward and aft ends of the fuselage form a
pressure vessel. Bulkheads distribute major loads into the fuselage at these
locations:
- Landing gear supports
- Wing Spars
- VerticaL stabiLizer spars
- Horizontal stabilizer hinge attach points.
Bulkheads aLso function as part of the pressure vessel at these locations:
- Forward fuselage
- Aft fuselage
- Wheel Well
- Other pressure closeouts.
Strinqers
Stringers are long structures that go from the nose to the tail of the fuselage.
Most of them are made from aluminum. Stringers transmit axial loads from
body bending and compression Loads caused by skin diagonal tension.
Floor Beams
Floor beams support the cabin floor and seat tracks. Most of the floor beams
go laterally from one side to the other in the fuselage. The floor beams above
the wing support area go longitudinally from front to rear because of wing
travel. ALL of the floor beams are made of aluminum.
Keel Beam
The keel beam keeps the ability of the fuselage to bend where the wing and
wheel well are. It is of a box beam design and transmits a large compression
Load because of body bending movement. It has a below wing section and a
wheel well section.
Fuselaqe Auxiliary Structures
These auxiliary structures attach to the fuselage:
- Nose radome
- Wing to body fairings
- Tail cone.
Frames
Frames are circular structures below the skin of the fuselage. These are the
frame functions:
- Hold the shape of the fuselage
- Transmit tension loads due to pressurization
- React to bending due to passenger and cargo deck loading
- Supply a load path for floor beams
- Supply a load path for overhead bin loads into the skin.

9. WINGS
9. General
The wing is a cantilevered structure. The basic wing structure is aluminum. The
wing has these features:
- Fuel tanks
- Fuel system components
- Attach points for the engine strut, landing gear and flight controls.
Fuel tank access panels on the bottom of the wing skin allow access to fuel
tanks. Different wingtip or winglets are installed according to customer
requests.
