Handling/Abuse Loads for Aircraft Interiors
Handling/Abuse Loads for Aircraft Interiors
(OP)
Does anybody know a good reference for this ?
I'm specifically concerned with military transport/Spec Ops aircraft, that will have big people wearing bulky flying gear moving about the cargo bay. There are various equipment racks and other furnishings in that cargo bay. It seem likely that, especially during turbulence, aircrew could be thrown against them, or grab them, lean on them, etc.
I've done some web searching, and there doesn't seem to be much literature on the subject. I would very much appreciate any wisdom you folks can give me.

I've seen references to Boeing D6-55441, which I gather is their guide to cabin furnishings like tables, etc, although I've never actually seen a copy. I've also seen various stress documents that make brief references to abuse loads, however nothing that goes into detail about how they are derived or where they should be applied.
I was wondering if there is an industry standard, or some sort of human factors analysis, that might document these loads in some detail.

alternatively, liberally cover your installation with "no hand hold here" labels ... ;)

If you are doing military and spec ops you might consider the breaking point of the human body and the fact that turbulence might occur very close to the ground.
