FIELD: transportation.
SUBSTANCE: inventions refer to fuselage structure of an aircraft and to fuselage structure manufacturing method. Aircraft fuselage structure features circumferential ribs, longitudinal stringers and covering attached to them and intended to seal aircraft fuselage from outside and ensure compaction resistance. Fuselage structure includes prefabricated integral modules, each module oriented in circumference of fuselage section and including ribs and connectors for connection of cover elements consisting of stringers and cover. Additionally, integral module includes transversal element integrated into the integral module. Method of fuselage structure manufacturing includes stages of integral module manufacturing, manufacturing of cover elements consisting of stringers and cover, mounting and adjustment of integral modules in a mounting aggregate, assembly and interconnection of cover elements with integral modules. Integral module is manufactured as a single unit.
EFFECT: reduced weight of structure.
