The fastening of the reinforcement sections to the chassis must be carried out using the standard brackets (see Figure 33), sup-
plementing them, if necessary, with other fasteners of elastic type (brackets or clamps) in order to keep the flexural and torsional
characteristics of the chassis as unchanged as possible.
The dimensions of the reinforcement sections to be used for this type of connection are shown in Table 3.8.
On vehicles for road use only, shearing resistant connections may be used for fastening the subframe to reduce the subframe
section height (see Figure 34) is requested. The minimum reinforcement section dimensions for all these applications are given in
Table 3.9.
The adoption of constant diameter sections for the entire length of the vehicle is recommended; section diameter reductions (al-
ways gradual) are possible in the areas in which the bending moment induced by the crane assumed values corresponding to the
boxes marked "A" in Tables 3.8 and 3.9.as possible.
The section of the crane subframe (Figure 33) can be integrated towards the rear end with that envisaged for another possible
superstructure; the length "L
V
" must in no case be less than 35% of the wheelbase if the superstructure section diameter is smaller.
