Fender Design - Wheel Arch Challenge
Fenger Design - Wheel Arch Calculation
Aim : To Decide weather the given design passes the European Regulations Requirement
The Given Design of Fender wheel arch :
European Regulations Requirement:
The Sketch which is made according to the European Standards
According to the European Regulations Requirements,
- The Distances between the points on the wheel circle and fender curve, should be greater than 10mm.
SA-SA
25.992 mm > 10 mm
SB-SB
43.641 mm > 10 mm
SC-SC
38.36 mm > 10 mm
SD-SD
40.955 mm > 10 mm
SE-SE
43.786 mm > 10 mm

- The Horizontal distances from SA, SB, and SC points to the fender curve should be at least 5mm.
Distance between SA point and fender outer curve = 10 mm
Distance between SB point and fender outer curve = 9.951mm
Distance between SC point and fender outer curve = 2.825mm (FAIL)
Distance between SD point and fender outer curve = 3.511mm (FAIL)
Distance between SE point and fender outer curve = 4.816mm (FAIL)
| Fender Curve To | Distance | Result |
| SA | 10 | PASS |
| SB | 9.951 | PASS |
| SC | 2.825 | FAIL |
| SD | 3.511 | FAIL |
| SE | 4.819 | FAIL |
CONCLUTION
The design should be reverted back to the class A designer , to modify the design and to increase the gap From outer curve of Fender to SC, SD, SE.
