3.2.1 Longitudinal runner profiles
The side members of the additional structure must be continuous, extended as much as possible toward the front part of the
vehicle and toward the area of the rear support of the front spring; furthermore, they must lean on the chassis and not on shelves.
In order to create a gradual decrease of the resisting section, the front ends of the profile must be tapered in height to an angle
no greater than 30º or with another tapering having an equivalent function (see Figure 3.1); the front end in contact with the chassis
must be coupled appropriately, with a min. radius of 5 mm.

Figure 3.1
When the components of the cab rear suspension (e.g. with deep cabs) do not allow the profile to pass through in its entire section,
the section can be created as shown in Figure 3.2. This might require checking the minimum resisting section with high front flexing
moments (e.g. with a crane behind the cab operating toward the front of the vehicle), requiring a mounting not beyond 250 mm
from the front end of the sub-frame.
