Question: 1 / 1030

Laminated wood spars may be substituted for solid rectangular wood spars if?

The laminated wood is cheaper

The same quality wood is used in both

Laminated wood spars may be substituted for solid rectangular wood spars if the same quality wood is used in both. This is crucial because the strength and durability of the spar depend on the quality of the wood being used. Using lower quality wood for the laminated spar could compromise the structural integrity of the aircraft. Therefore, it is important to ensure that the same quality wood is used in both types of spars to maintain the necessary strength and safety standards.

The other options are incorrect because the choice of material for aircraft components should not be based on cost (A), using a lighter wood (C) might not meet strength requirements, and using any available wood (D) could result in a spar that does not meet the required specifications for strength and reliability.
