The fuselage is the main body to which all parts are connected and subjected to take bending load, torsion load, tensile load, compression load and shear load. Frames and stringers is the basic skeleton of the fuselage which gives major support. Frames give the fuselage its cross-sectional shape and prevent it from buckling, when it is subjected to bending loads. Stringers give a large increase in the stiffness of the skin under torsion and bending loads, with minimal increase in weight. Other than
