STRENGTH ANALYSIS OF THE FRAME OF A TRAILER

A trailer for carrying a small boat or water scooters was designed for a private sector company. It was a category O1 non-braked trailer with a gross weight up to 750 kg and a height-adjustable traction device. The frame must be designed and installed in such a way that, during its proposed lifetime, it will withstand all the loads and influences that may occur during construction and operation with an appropriate level of reliability. The designed frame of the trailer is a welded galvanized structure. The article is devoted to the problems related to the stress analysis of a trailer frame.
