The SES template has been created to simplify the process of proving structural equivalency. As downloaded the spreadsheet assumes a baseline steel chassis design. The majority of the cells in the spreadsheet are locked, Cells shaded grey are dependant on the data entered in yellow cells, the formulae in these grey cells have been left visible so you The vast majority of the tabs can be accessed using the hyperlinks on the cover sheet. Note there are some that cannot such as th you enable macros when opening the document "Ctrl+e" will always return you to the cover sheet. There have been a few questions about how to handle bent/two piece tubes in place of a single baseline tube. If properly triangulat stiffer and stronger than the baseline tube, so please ensure you include images of the tube(s) in the "Chassis Pics" tab for the SES of equivalence to the "Additional Info" tab if you deem it necessary. You do not need to adjust the number of tubes in the relevant c The SES has been extensively tested, but if you think you have found a mistake in the document or have any questions on how to FSAE rules committee in the usual manner.
