What is Innovative Structural Design about?

## Abstract The following chapter describes the main topics of a car body structure. For most car manufacturers, the body structure has a very high importance. This chapter describes the main requirements of a car body. Besides the functional requirements such as safety, durability (corrosion and strength), and comfort (stability and acoustics), environmental requirements, requirements of production (process, standardization, and flexibility), and economical requirements (direct costs and investments) will be explained. In the main part, all common architectural types such as ladder frame structure, sandwich construction, three‐dimensional frame structure, monocoque, and pressed steel construction will be presented. The wide range of materials from steel, aluminum, to fiber composite materials will be shown, and an overview of joining technology will be given. In addition, all modern simulation and testing methods will be mentioned, and an outlook in future architectures will be given.
