Abstract

A method for joining structural profiles (1a, 1b), in particular curved or angular structural profiles of an aircraft, comprises forming a first structural profile (1a) with a first mating contour (2a) at a first opening end (3a) and a second structural profile (1b) with a second mating contour (2b) at a second opening end (3b), the first mating contour being complementary formed to the second mating contour; changing a size of at least one of the structural profiles (1a, 1b) at least at the respective mating contour by expansion or contraction of the respective structural profile; sliding both structural profiles into each other at their respective opening ends while changed in size such that the structural profiles overlap at the mating contours; and reversing the size change of the respective structural profiles by contraction or expansion such that at least one of a form fit or an interference fit is formed between the structural profiles at their mating contours.
