or structure (mainly 14 CFR, Part 25) The stress engineer develops product structure models, interface loads from these structures into

structure, documents strength and deflection capabilities of the structure under different loadingdevelops static test plans, conducts static tests etc. all per the applicable FAA regulations, then dothe results in approved stress report formats, which are finally approved by the FAA

The stress engineer is responsible for detailed engineering calculations and suggesting any designnecessary to comply with the FAA regulations

Only then the particular structure or product is allowed to fly on that aircraft to ensure passenger

during the flight and emergency landing or crash situations A good stress engineer has at a decent understanding of end customer expectations, engineering

constraints, tolerances, manufacturing, supply chain issues (such as time required and cost to get materials etc.), and also on the management side things such as schedules, budgets and people m

In this industry, knowledge is typically gained with time and experience under other experienced This is where www.stressebook.com tries to drastically cut down on the time required to learn theadvanced engineering and time management skills that are needed to succeed in this career

Educatio

For an entry level stress engineer position, all you need is a Bachelors Degree in either aerospace,

mechanical, civil or even general engineering that covers engineering mechanics, strength of mate

material science, and a basic level of FEM (finite element method or modeling) exposure

Then the training happens mostly on the job

However, to gain knowledge, become leaders or managers, and make a good salary or income, it w

many years of on the job learning and hard work and a keen sense of detail, not unlike many othe

engineering careers

In order to be in lead positions, you typically need a Masters Degree plus 3 to 5 years of work exp

a Bachelors Degree plus 5 to 10 years of work experience

However, my website will help you learn these skills much more quickly in a compact and easy to format

Offer engineering and consulting services

Offer highly specialized training services, either live to students or online, like whdoing

Working as independent contractors

Working as ODA Unit Member, typically requires a company (that has an ODA) toyou as their Unit Member (UM)

Working as a DER, there are DER exams and qualifications, this is more independ

also more challenging to maintain activityLateral shift from Design to Stress

Lateral shift from Tech Pubs or Flammability or other departments to Stress
