Project Overview


The motivation for this freshman design project is to learn more about pedal boxes and more specifically, its mechanics. The objective of the project is design a pedal box that will function properly and with the lowest weight possible.  For the finishing product, some goals that will be met include making sure the pedal box is durable, adjustable, and working properly by the deadline. There are also extensive rules from the sanctioning body that organizes the competition, the Society of Automotive Engineers, that must be followed without deviation.  For the major task, the group will design an adjustable pedal box that fits for people of all different sizes, have it be lightweight, and at the same time be durable so it lasts over time. Final deliverables consist of drawings, models, analysis, and the actual pedal box.
