I am contemplating a project that will use a large-ish (46"X96")
composite sandwich panel as major portion of a car chassis.
I do not speak “engineering”. So I am looking to engage a
consulting engineer to advise me on the core (end grain balsa),
layup schedule, PSI limits for component support pads, and
similar. Lots of questions on static and dynamic loads. I do
have some excellent automotive engineering sources for
recommended load factors etc.
I am prepared to pay for services received. If anyone has
recommendations, please pass them on. Thanks.
