Les couples jouent dans le fuselage le même rôle que les nervures dans la voilure, ils assurent : — le maintien du profil (circulaire, ovoïde, ou bi-lobé); — la rigidité transversale; — le support d'efforts locaux importants. On trouve, sur un même fuselage, deux types de couples : — les couples courants assurant le maintien de la forme générale du fuselage et le raidissage transversal; — les couples forts [...] Les couples courants sont réalisés à partir de profilés ou de tôle d'alliage léger pliée dont une aile ou des bords tombés permettent la liaison au revêtement. 3, record 2, French, - couple%20secondaire
