Abstract
Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: “Inrecent years, Full Size Determinant Assembly (FSDA) is bec oming increasingly utilized in manufacturingprocesses to assemble structures wi thout holding fixtures. FSDA includes designing parts that fit togetherat a pre -defined interface and do not require holding fixtures, setting gauges, or other complex adjustmentsand measurements. For instance, full size holes may be dril led into a component prior to being coupledto another component. Such full-size holes may need to be plugged prior to subsequent manufacturingprocesses to avo id unintended consequences.”
