Abstract

A stringer runout configuration has a pair of fittings with each fitting having a fitting web that is configured for attachment to a stringer web of a stringer on opposite sides of a terminating end of the stringer. The stringer web has a terminating end with a curved configuration and base flanges with rounded terminating ends. Each fitting has a base flange that has a bottom surface with a first surface area and a second surface area positioned at different heights. The first surface area of each of the fittings is configured for attachment to a stringer base flange on opposite sides of a terminating end of the stringer. The second surface area of each of the fittings is configured for attachment to a composite panel surface adjacent the terminating end of the stringer. These and other detailed design features described herein enhance the capability of the runout configuration.
