The invention concerns a shell segment for the purpose of manufacturing a fuselage cell section for a fuselage cell of an aeroplane, with at least one skin field and with a multiplicity of longitudinal stiffeners arranged thereon, in particular stringers, and also at least one transverse stiffening element running transverse to the longitudinal stiffeners, in particular at least one frame.In that the connection of the at least one transverse stiffening element to the at least one skin field is undertaken with at least one connecting bracket wherein the at least one connecting bracket has at least one corrugation, the supporting brackets for purposes of absorbing tilting moments of the frames, in forms of embodiment of shell segments of prior known art, can be omitted. By this means a considerable weight reduction is possible with, at the same time, a reduced production effort.
