Discussion
Consider the following statements about the wing box:
1. It carries the wing bending moment through the spar caps and skins.
2. It carries the wing torsion as a closed thin-walled section.
3. It plays no part in containing the fuel.
Which of the statements given above is or are correct?
Answer: C
The first two are correct and are why the box dominates wing design. The third is false: on most transports the box is sealed and used as an integral tank, which avoids the weight of separate bladders and uses volume that would otherwise be wasted.
