**Mold Point**Â is the
theoretical location of the turn.
10
New cards
***Setback***Â is the
distance that we begin the turn before (and end after) the mold point
11

amount that we round off the corner
12
New cards
***Bend Allowance***Â is the
amount of material we use in the real bend.
13
New cards
Setback formula (90 degrees)
SB = MT + BR
14
New cards
Bend allowance formula
BA = 1.57BR + .702MT
15
New cards
What is the value of the bend tangent lines
1BR
16

Bend allowance formula (not 90 degrees)
(0.0078MT + 0.01743BR) x degrees
17
New cards
Setback formula (not 90)
K(MT + BR)
18
New cards
stop drilling is used to
stop cracks from progressing
19
New cards
relief holes are used when
bending two flanges that come against each other.
20
New cards
Relief holes should just touch the intersection of
the two inside BTL’s.
21
New cards
Sheet metal tends to ____ along grain lines
fail, much stronger across grain lines.
22
New cards
The general rule for finding the proper rivet diameter is
three times the thickness of the thickest sheet
23
New cards
What is the minimum edge distance for aircraft rivets?
Two times the diameter of the rivet shank
24
New cards
What is the minimum spacing for a single row of aircraft rivets?
Three times the diameter of the rivet shank.
25
New cards
A factor which determines the minimum space between rivets is the
diameter of the rivets being used.
26
New cards
Which of the following need not be considered when determining minimum rivet spacing?
rivet length
27
New cards
Parts fabricated from Alclad 2024- T3 aluminum sheet stock must have all
scratches, kinks, tool marks, nicks, etc., must be held to a minimum.
28
New cards
Joggles in removed rivet shanks would indicate partial
shear failure
29
New cards
The purpose of a joggle is to
allow clearance for a sheet or an extrusion.
30
New cards
The sharpest bend that can be placed in a piece of metal without critically weakening the part is called the
minimum radius of bend.
31
New cards
Unless otherwise specified, the radius of a bend is the
inside radius of the metal being formed
32
New cards
When a piece of aluminum alloy is to be bent using a minimum radius for the type and thickness of material,
the layout should be made so that the bend will be 90° to the grain of the sheet.
33
New cards
If it is necessary to compute a bend allowance problem and bend allowance tables are not available, the neutral axis of the bend can be
found by adding approximately one-half of the stock thickness to the bend radius.
34
New cards
The most important factors needed to make a flat pattern layout are
the lengths of the legs (flat sections).
35
New cards
A piece of sheet metal is bent to a certain radius. The curvature of the bend is referred to as the
bend radius
36
New cards
Which rivets should be selected to join two sheets of .032- inch aluminum?
MS20470AD-4-4.
37
New cards
Rivet pitch is the distance between the
centers of adjacent rivets in the same row
38
New cards
Rivet gauge, or transverse pitch is the distance between the
centers of rivets in adjacent rows.
39
New cards
A single-lap sheet splice is to be used to repair a section of damaged aluminum skin. If a double row of 1/8-inch rivets is used, the minimum allowable overlap will be
13/16in
40
New cards
How many MS20470 AD-4-6 rivets will be required to attach a 10 x 5 inch plate, using a single row of rivets, minimum edge distance, and 4D spacing?
56
41
New cards
A piece of flat stock that is to be bent to a closed angle of 15° must be bent through an angle of
165
42
New cards
The flat layout or blank length of a piece of metal from which a simple L- shaped bracket 3 inches by 1 inch is to be bent depends upon the radius of the desired bend. The bracket which will require the greatest amount of material is one which has a bend radius of
1/8”
43
New cards
On a sheet metal fitting layout with a single bend, allow for stretching by
subtracting the setback from both legs.
44
New cards
The sight line on a sheet metal flat layout to be bent in a cornice or box brake is measured and marked
one radius from either bend tangent line
45
New cards
When bending metal, the material on the outside of the curve stretches while the material on the inside of the curve compresses. That part of the material which is not affected by either stress is the
