| Subject: | Wing Strut Attachment |
Today I am worrying about how to attach the Struts.
What are you guys doing to attach the Struts ?
The top Strut fitting is especially challenging.
I am using a Carlson Aircraft extrusion for my struts.
To attach the strut, Carlson sells a 1=9Dx3/4=9D aluminum
extrusion that slides into the end of the strut. Then you bolt it in
place. I cut this extrusion into 8=9D lengths. I put this
8=9D piece in the lathe and end drilled and threaded a 7/16 hole
2=9D deep into the strut.
On the lower end I plan to use this wing strut adjustment fork from
Aircraft Spruce.
https://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/appages/strutadjfbsets2.php
<https://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/appages/strutadjfbsets2.php>
The top end is more challenging. The wing may move forward or back to
adjust weight/balance. This movement changes the angle that the strut
meets the wing so the attachment needs to be flexible. I see
that some builders have used a helm joint. This is a simple solution,
but I wonder about the loads on the fitting. The strongest Helm joint
that I could find is rated at 14,000 lbs :
That is a little weaker than the strut.
What are you guys doing ?
John

Thanks so much for letting us know, Laura. He had a good run, he became a good
friend of mine, and I am proud to say that I own and fly something that he built
with his own hands.

Wow, We all know him from his Pietenpol building and flying posts. But that
was apparently one corner of his life and interests.
God Bless.

The Luddite purists in the community will love the attached photo.
Yesterday during my commercial checkride, I placed my iPAD with the
FOREFLIGHT flight plan in it on the floor like I have many times before. It
must have slid forward. When I put the gear up, the Johnson bar came down
and CRUSHED my iPAD, pinning it to the floor in the process! It not only
shattered the screen, it bent the frame!
I came around and landed. There was no extracting any information from my
iPAD. I spooled up my Samsung tablet with Anywhere map and spent 30
minuites trying to configure it for the planned trip. It worked but I did
not have the flight plan in it and there was no way to conduct the pilotage
portion of the checkride. The DPE and I decided to simply do all the
landings and he gave me a continuance. I nailed the landings and only have
to do the Pilotage portion and the maneuvers.

| Subject: | Re: Wing Strut Attachment |
John, actually the Heim rod end is stronger than the strut. Note that the
cross sectional area of the strut is indicated as 0.431 square inches
(si). According to the numbers you reported, this means the ultimate
strength is 18,012 psi * 0.421 si = 7763 lbs; the yield strength is 15,94
7
psi * .431 si = 6873 lbs; and the shear strength is 11,637 psi * 0.431
5016 lbs. I have a chart that shows the maximum shear strength of sitka
spruce as 1150 psi, which means the wood where the brackets attach the
struts to the spars is likely to be weaker than any component in the struts
that you are considering. And that wood is still plenty strong if the
wings are built to plans. Cheers, Ken

Steve, condolences on your iPAD and good luck for the rest of your
checkride. I used to fly hot air balloons. In all those years, I only
burned fabric one time: on my checkride. Go figure. Cheers, Ken

Lower end I used the J-3 fork from Wag Aero, threaded into: drilled and tapped
a piece of 7071 aluminum from Mcmaster-Carr. Upper end also uses a 7071 insert
held fast with two AN-4 bolts. "Small" Carlson struts.

Pietenpol's don't have Johnson Bars.....nor iPads! Sorry for the misfortune.
..stick with Pietenpol's and life could be simpler.

| Subject: | Re: Wing Strut Attachment |
John and others, I received the following as a private message this
afternoon:
"I sometimes lurk on the Piet List and saw your posting today. The Carlson
numbers are the area times the various strengths of the 6061-T6 aluminum.
As such they aren't stresses but strengths and their units ought to be
pounds force instead of psi. They neglect thickness or area moment of
inertia and represent nothing more than the strengths of a short thick bar.
By ignoring shape effects, they are inappropriate for use in design. Sorry,
but this does make your posting incorrect. Additionally, the equivalent
round tube sizes are best ignored completely. They are of no help. It would
have been helpful if Carlson had posted the area moments of inertia, but
they didn't. Who the heck am I? I'm an old retired aerospace stress
analyst."
Note that the old retired aerospace stress analyst doesn't offer a bottom
line conclusion as to whether the Heim rod end is sufficiently strong to
use or even whether the Carlson struts are sufficiently strong or that the
whole thing would still be stronger than the wood to which it is attached,
only that my posting is incorrect.
Nevertheless, I'll defer to superior authority and retract what I posted
earlier.

| Subject: | Re: Wing Strut Attachment |
Oh, I love this!! Area moments of inertia! ;o) The easy way to determine that
value for just about any shape you can draw is to draw it to scale in model
space in AutoCAD and then use the 'massprop' command. That's how I determined
the moment of inertia for the Carlson extruded aluminum spar that Terry and others
are using. Draw the outline of the inner and outer surfaces of the shape
as Plines. Make the area a region by selecting the lines that comprise the
cross-section. Enter 'massprop' and select the shape, and you should move the
centroid to the 0,0,0 point to do that. Massprop will spit out the area moment
of inertia faster than you can say "Pietenpol Air Camper" ;o)
When I was analyzing the extruded wing spar, what I really needed was the section
modulus, which for the spar is equal to the moment of inertia divided by half
the height. The spar being symmetrical and us looking for the maximum stress
(which occurs at the outermost fibers farthest from the centroid), that's half
the height. It could be taken anywhere along the section if needed for your
particular analysis, especially for an asymmetrical shape.
I could probably draw the Carlson extruded strut section in CAD from the catalog
graphic and the dimensions provided, and extract the area moment of inertia
pretty easily from that, but then I would be depriving someone else of the fun
;o)
