Clarification ID
This form must be completed and submitted by all teams no later than the date specified in the Action Deadlines
on specific event website. The FSAE Technical Committee will review all submissions which deviate from the
FSAETM rules and reply with a decision about the requested deviation. All requests will have a confirmation of receipt
sent to the team. Structural Equivalency Spreadsheets (SES) must be submitted electronically in Microsoft Excel
Format (*.xls). The submissions must be named as follows: schoolname_ses.xls using the complete school name.
Please submit to the person indicated in the Action Deadlines for each event.
In the event that the FSAE Technical Committee requests additional information or calculations, teams have one
week from the date of request to submit the requested information.

Please attach pictures of the frame and/or monocoque in the table below for review during the SES process.
All tubes/lay-ups must be colour coded to show outer diameter and wall thickness. Three view drawings and
isometric views of the structure (CAD, FEA models, etc) are acceptable. Note: The final decision about all designs will
be made at technical inspection. Approval of an SES does not guarantee passing Tech. Inspection.
Images must include dimensions/labels indicating the following:
Angle of main and front hoops
Angle between main hoop bracing and main hoop
Distance from top of main hoop to main hoop brace attachment
Distance from top of front hoop to front hoop brace attachment
Outer diameter and wall thickness of all tubes / monocoque lay-up
Teams entering cars with EV Powertrains must show the location of all HV components in these images and
highlight them by colouring them orange.

2. Chassis with a structure as per 1., but where >=100% equivalence is not shown on the
flat panel calc alone.
In this case additional proof of equivalence is required, by showing the actual chassis
design is >=100% equivalent, it is acceptable to include half of the chassis in this proof.
Using a CAD measure of the cross-section, or other appropriate method, provide proof
of the second moment of area and area of the monocoque skins.
Multiply this measured "I" by the "E" derived from the required physical test to prove the
buckling modulus is equivalent.
The measured "I" must be transposed from the cross-section centroid to a reference
co-ordinate system on the chassis centre-line, and the same completed for the baseline
tubes.
The measured "A" must be multiplied by the physical test derived skin UTS to prove
the strength of the section is >=100%
The measured "A" must be multiplied by the physical test derived skin UTS to prove
the strength of the section is >=100%
2. Chassis where the flat panel calculation shows >33% but <100% equivalence to 3
front bulkhead support tubes.
(If the flat panel calculation shows <33% equivalence the panel core and/or skin
thickness must be increased and the physical tests repeated until >33% is achieved)
In this case additional proof of equivalence is required, by showing the actual chassis
design is >=100% equivalent.

Entering the combined perimeter of all inserts between the outer and inner skins is
optional, provided the strength in both loading directions is >=30kN without their inclusion.
Note: Brackets which have no "form" or gusseting are not acceptable as they will fail in
bending at <30KN
Below are some examples of brackets which are not acceptable:
