Hi Guys,
So I am biting off more than I can chew with my latest project.. and looking for help.
I am going to fabricate a kit car chassis,
The suggested material is 1' x 1' steel box section but why?
Could anybody help by suggesting the kind of calculations I would have to research in order to proove such a chassis made from this material would not fail?
the reasons for this is I want to carry out similar calculations for Aluminium and possibly tubular sections...
I realize this is going to be tough to pin down as it relies on many aspects however a push in the right direction or points I should consider will be hugely appreciated.
Kind Regards
Jason
