After reading 10 pages of threads with the key-word “stress” I do not feel I belong in the same room. That being said I am doing a feasibility/design study of converting an existing design to aluminum stressed skin design. I am using the Autocad region data and solid properties data. I am not sure my method is correct. There are serious deficiencies in this model as is stated in the initial conditions, and I understand that. My only thought at this point is weather what I have done makes sense from a calculation standpoint. If I am able to use the section moment, center of gravity, mass, and mass moment data it should really help in my process. I attach a picture of my spread sheet. Thank you in advance.
