: These include maneuver loads (e.g., pull-ups or turns), gust loads from atmospheric turbulence, and loads from control surface deflections.

In aerospace engineering, the design of an airframe is a two-stage process: determining the and establishing the structural layout and sizing of primary members. This process ensures the aircraft can withstand various stresses while remaining as lightweight as possible for aerodynamic efficiency.

Before structural analysis begins, all external and internal loads must be identified. These loads are generally categorized by the aircraft's operating phase: : These include maneuver loads (e
