Abstract = {{This paper deals with the weight estimation of the wing box of a
   commercial aircraft by means of a procedure suitable for very large
   liners and/or unconventional configurations for which statistical data
   and empirical formulas may not be sufficiently reliable. Attention is
   focused on the need to account for aeroelastic interaction from a very
   preliminary stage of the design cycle. The procedure exploits the first
   of three levels of a multilevel structural optimization system conceived
   for the preliminary design of the wing primary structure and a
   simplified evaluation of the cross-sectional properties. The comparison
   between weight estimates obtained with the present procedure and
   predictions supplied by available literature shows a satisfactory
   agreement.}},
