Hi All,I've got my longerons and struts/braces #13, 14, and 15 in the jig, and I alsohave a couple of questions. Since there will be gussets on both sides, is theremuch benefit to glueing the butt joints? Also, I see that struts/braces 2through 6 are made with 7/8" by 1" - yes, it would be a bit heavier, but wouldit be OK to make them with 1" by 1"?

I have glued my butt joints whenever feasible, simply because more bonding is better.But realistically speaking, there is minimal strength to be gained in theprocess. The bulk of the strength will be carried by the gusset joints. Whenyou do glue the gussets in place, make sure you get full adhesive contact betweenthe gusset and the longerons/cross pieces.As for substituting 1" x 1" for the 7/8" x 1", my question would be why do youwant to do that? It will be a little bit stronger and heavier, but the added strengthis unnecessary, and so is the weight. If it didn't make any difference,then those pieces would be 1" x 1" in the plans. The load carried by that sectionof the structure is a bit less, so the cross pieces can be made smaller.Because extra weight (especially in the tail) is a no-no in building an aircraft,it should be avoided whenever possible. Your plane will still fly if youjust use the 1" x 1", but it will fly BETTER if you follow the plans.Bill C.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Two Fuse Questions
