Elements making up the subframe
The shape of the profile section is determined according to the function of the sub-frame and the type of structure above it. Open
C profiles are recommended when the sub-frame must adapt elastically to the vehicle chassis, or boxed sections when a greater
rigidity of the assembly is required.
Take care to create a gradual passage from the boxed section to the open section, as in the examples of Figure 3.3.

Gradual passage from
box-type to open-type
section
The profiles of the sub-frame must be continuously leaning on the profiles of the chassis; if it is not so, continuity can be re-established
by means of sheet metal or light alloy straps.
If a rubber antiskid element is positioned here, we recommend specifications and thickness identical to those used for normal
production (hardness 80 Shore, max thickness 3 mm). The application of antifriction material may prevent abrasive actions which
can cause corrosion when materials with a different composition (e.g. aluminium and steel).
The sizes described for side members for various types of frames are the minimum recommended values, normally valid for standard
vehicle wheelbases and rear overhangs. In every case similar profiles can be used provided that their inertial moment and resistance
are no lower than these values: these values can be found in the technical documentation of the profile manufacturers.
