This chapter outlines the treatment of ground loads in a somewhat similar manner to that considered for flight manoeuvre and gust loads. In the certification requirements, the load cases are essentially subdivided into the two categories of landing and ground handling, the latter covering taxi, take‐off and landing roll, braked roll, turning, jacking, towing, etc. The calculations lead to airframe internal loads, together with landing gear ground, attachment and component loads; the methodologies are similar to those for flight loads except that discrete landing gear loads are also present. The chapter considers the calculation of stresses from internal loads (via loads acting upon components) and loads sorting. Landing gears are highly non‐linear for the shock absorber, tyre and gear mechanism. The gear to airframe attachment arrangement is important in terms of how the loads are transferred. The dynamic response and loads are calculated using a non‐linear time‐stepping solution.
