Abstract
A uniquely configured suspension system, manufactured primarily of lightweight composite materials, is required for the University of Johannesburg's solar powered race vehicle. For this design to reach successful completion, an assessment framework is introduced that would scrutinise and analyse different stages of the development. The focus of this paper is on the design and development of a prototype composite vehicle suspension system and assessing the framework implemented to control the research and development process of composite components.
