True or False: When fifth wheel brackets are bolted to frame rails, the section modulus over that section of the frame is increased.

A

True

19
Q

What procedure do most manufacturers recommend when a frame rail is damaged?

A

Replacement

20
Q

When projecting a frame diagram to a floor when making a frame alignment check, what tool is used to transfer the reference points on the truck chassis to the floor?

A

A plumb bob

21
Q

What is the correct procedure and the material used to weld a hardened truck frame rail extension into position?

A

Electric arc with AWS E-11018 electrode

22
Q

When a load is applied to a C-channel frame rail from above, which of the following statements should be true?
a. The neutral fiber is under compressional stress
b, The lower flange is under tensional stress
c. The upper flange is under tensional stress
d. The lower flange is under compressional stress

A

b. The lower flange is under tensional stress

23
Q

True or False: When extending a frame, you should weld a frame extension butt joint then grind the weld cap run flush with the frame.

A

True

24
Q

True or False: Installing inverted L-section reinforcements is preferred to L-section reinforcements because the section modulus is not affected.

A

False

25
Q

rue or False: In bolting equipment to the chassis frame, you should avoid drilling holes in the frame neutral fiber.

A

False

26
Q

Which of the following is a function of the cross-members of the chassis frame?
