Epoxy FR4/FR5 A & B-basis allowables
- Thread starter laremise
- Start date
MIL-HDBK-17 is your best bet.
There was also an effort several years back, part of the AGATE program, to publish allowables for the common resin/matrix systems. These were considered "FAA Approved," if that applies to your program.
Sometimes the suppliers will do the allowables program, and will let you have access unless it is proprietary (and that is the usual case). Can't blame a design approval holder for wanting to retain the value of their investment.
