CS-VLA 499 Supplementary conditions for nose wheels
ED Decision 2003/18/RM
In determining the ground loads on nose wheels and affected supporting structures, and assuming that the shock absorbers and tyres are in their static positions, the following conditions must be met:
(a) For aft loads, the limit force components at the axle must be -
(1) A vertical component of 2.25 times the static load on the wheel; and
(2) A drag component of 0.8 times the vertical load.
(b) For forward loads, the limit force components at ground contact must be -
(1) A vertical component of 2.25 times the static load on the wheel; and
(2) A forward component of 0.4 times the vertical load.
(c) For side loads, the limit force components at the axle must be -
(1) A vertical component of 2.25 times the static load on the wheel; and
(2) A side component of 0.7 times the vertical load.
