By this stage in the project I should probably know the answer to the but here goes anyway. I am wondering if there are any specific rules for doubling up material.
I am trying to fabricate the F-7109 plate. This is the stiffener that holds the smaller roll bar brace that goes in the middle of the windscreen on the slider.
Van calls out to make the doubler from 063 material. Unfortunately I don’t have any. I do have some 040 and 032 material I could use. Is it acceptable to do this? I suspect it is but I cannot find a reference to it in any of the publications I have. This is a structural area so I would like some peace of mind before I do it.
Thanks
