• Rectangular cross-section stiffeners—along the perimeter of the plate, and
between installation seats of the satellite components.

Thickness of the skin is 1.5 mm, while the outer and internal stiffeners of the plate
have 2 mm thickness. Thickness of the rectangular cross-section stiffeners con-
necting holes for eight studs is 6 mm. Outer stiffeners and stiffeners connecting
