Abstract

A rear lower aerodynamic fairing for an attachment device for an aircraft engine, including two side panels assembled together with transverse stiffening inner ribs spaced apart from each other along a longitudinal direction of the fairing, and a heat protection floor to be closely followed by a primary flow of the engine. The floor includes plural floor segments distributed along the direction and non-rigidly bound to each other, and the fairing further includes an assembling mechanism assembling the floor segments, offsetting the latter of the ribs to which are connected the assembling mechanism.
