thread2-259226: Wet Rivet Shear Strength
Currently I am working as a Process Engineer and I’m responsible for supervising the sealing process of wings (specially fuel tanks) and fuselage panels. Now I’m interest in understanding the history of sealing process and the introduction of sealants in aircraft industry. I’ve read some interest posts in this forum. Do you know where can I find information about this matter?
