CS 22.499 Supplementary conditions for nose wheels ED Decision 2003/13/RM In determining the ground loads on the nose wheel and affected supporting structures, and assuming that the shock absorber and tyre are in their static positions, the following conditions must be met: (a) For forward 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 forward component of 0.4 times the vertical component. (b) For side 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 side component of 0.7 times the vertical component.
