Abstract
An assembly of a central aircraft fuselage section includes a longitudinal master wall for fixing of two aircraft air foil boxes. The method includes providing a trolley that can be moved on the ground, including a supporting structure in a station, supplying the station with the master wall, installing and mechanically immobilizing the master wall at a reference position on the supporting structure of the trolley, supplying the station with a transverse wall, installing and mechanically immobilizing this transverse wall at a reference position situated at a rectilinear edge upstream or downstream of the master wall, fixing the transverse wall to the master wall, and moving the trolley to another station.
