2. Construction of a typical ladder frame

3. Design considerations

4. Design methodology from concept to detail design

5. primary design criteria which govern initial design

6. What is Bending stiffness ? how is it measured and its practical importance

7. What is torsional stiffness ? how is it measured and its practical importance

8. How to improve stiffness locally with examples

9. Design for durability and a logical process to follow with examples

10. Converting vehicle specifications to Design specifications

11. Developing the dimensions for side members

12. Design Workflow of front suspension mounting cluster

13. Design Workflow of Powertrain mounting cluster

14. Design Workflow of Fuel tank mounting cluster

15. Design Workflow of Rear suspension mount cluster

16. Design workflow of Body mounting cluster
