⚡⚡⚡Mechanical Design & Heavy-Duty Vehicle Engineering⚡⚡⚡ Hello, I have experience designing and analyzing heavy-duty structural assemblies, trailer hitches, towing attachments, and fabricated steel components for high-load applications. My background includes load-path analysis, weld design, material selection, and fabrication drawings to ensure safe and reliable performance under demanding operating conditions. My approach is to evaluate the semi-truck chassis configuration, towing loads, and hitch location requirements, then develop a robust design with appropriate structural reinforcement, connection details, and fabrication specifications for safe operation. Key technical points to confirm are the truck make/model, maximum sled weight and drawbar load, and whether the hitch will be permanently installed or removable. Thanks.
