They run parallel to the lateral axis, or toward the tip of the wing, and are usually attached to the fuselage by wing fittings, plain beams, or a truss system. Wooden spars can be generally classified into four different types by their cross sectional configuration. ... they may be partly hollow, in the shape of a box, solid or laminated, rectangular in shape, or in the form of an I-beam. ...
