Excerpt from A Thesis: Comparative Tests of Small Laminated and Solid Spruce Beams for Aeroplane Construction Another phase of the design of aeroplanes has been the use of a laminated construction for these parts, espe - cially in the places where a curved beam is to be used. In this manner a curved beam may be bent in a form and the laminations glued up while in the form, thus preserving the required curve after the drying of the glue. This method makes a remarkably stiff beam, and one which is readily built. Beams built ...

Excerpt from A Thesis: Comparative Tests of Small Laminated and Solid Spruce Beams for Aeroplane Construction Another phase of the design of aeroplanes has been the use of a laminated construction for these parts, espe - cially in the places where a curved beam is to be used. In this manner a curved beam may be bent in a form and the laminations glued up while in the form, thus preserving the required curve after the drying of the glue. This method makes a remarkably stiff beam, and one which is readily built. Beams built in this way are used for such parts as the ribs for the aeroplane carrying surfaces, the skids which rub on the ground upon landing, the laminated propellare, and even the long members of the main girder-like frame - work.
