Abstract

The primary inspection of composite structures is usually performed on composite components prior to assembly into a full structure. Inspection of these structures after assembly verifies the quality of the structure before it is placed in service, and can provide a baseline for future in- service inspections. This paper addresses the concerns, problems, and solutions that have been addressed for post-assembly inspections at McDonnell Douglas.
