Abstract
A primary support strut structure and a method of manufacturing thereof for an aircraft power plant is disclosed having a first half-shell including a first free edge, and a second half-shell having a second free edge. The first half-shell and the second half-shell are assembled together by joining the first free edge and the second free edge so as to form a box-shaped structure. The two half-shell construction results in very rigid box structure, and a reduced number of ribs in the primary structure.
