Overview

The primary objective of this investigation is to perform a revised final design upon a CAD modelled bracket structural member. Furthermore, the revised design of the part is to ultimately have a reduction upon maximum stress endured by the bracket when undertaking specified load and torque conditions. These conditions are highlighted below, alongside requirements of the design that this report will follow.

Approach

the bracket has been achieved through integrating the most effective design decisions off the previous iterations. This final design involves adjusting the webbing or filleting near the maximum stress point by using a chamfer and additionally, adjusting the rib of the upper section of the bracket, in comparison with design iteration three primarily.
