The load distribution between the front and the rear axle of a motor vehicle weighing 1350 kg is that 48% of the load is taken by the front axle. The width of the track is 140 cm and the distance between the centers of the spring pads is 66 cm. Design a suitable I section fir the front axle assuming that the width if the flange and its thickness are 0.6 and 0.2 of the overall depth of the section respectively and the thickness of the web 0.25 of the width of the flange. Assuming a working stress of 915 kgf/cm2.
