Module 6. Materials & hardware

Where the edge of a new fabric section will be located within 1 inch of a structural member to which the fabric is attached by rib lacing or other methods, the new fabric section should

  • be extended 3 inches past the structural member.
  • be extended to meet the structural member.
  • be designated a major repair.

Explanation

Where a new fabric section ends within an inch of a rib or other member that the fabric is laced to, the cloth is carried at least about 3 inches past that member. This ensures the seam and lacing land on supported structure rather than in an unsupported, weak position right at the joint.

cpster asking:

this is wrong answer should be "be extended 3 inch past the structure member"
