To Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} ORIGINAL. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}6/LG20.9.23. GOSHAWK 11. FRAME DEFLECTION. x4260 With reference to the Chart of Frame Deflections with and without tie rods which I left at WW. We have gone over the figures again and find that if you will disregard the + and - signs, the deflections are correct. The Chart should not have shewn the load concentrated on one point - the load was distributed at each side. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
