Abstract— Automotive Chassis is a skeletal frame which is an Important part of an automobile which should be rigid enough to withstand the shock, twist, vibrations and other stresses. A Stiffener is added to the chassis frame which consist of side members attached with series of cross members to have adequate bending stiffness for better handling characteristics. Design of chassis can be done in the modeling Software CATIA V5 R20 Structural Analysis and Model Analysis will be done on the chassis frame using ANSYS 14.0. This thesis deals with the analysis of chassis frame for improving its payload by adding stiffener.
