Composite materials are replacing traditional metals due to lightweight and high strength. These can be manufactured according to the design requirements easily. Most of the two-wheeler riders are facing the problems in summer and rainy seasons. So, we are developing the protecting roof for the two-wheelers. This roof is equipped with solar panels to produce the electrical energy which is used for auxiliaries like mobile, charging and fog lights and music system lightweight strengthening solutions are required to increase roof strengths while minimizing structural mass. This paper presents the novel approach of strengthening vehicle roof structure components by bonding glass fibers to the steel surface. Such fiber strengthening systems have been shown to provide substantial increases in force and energy resistance for steel tubes strengthening the roof structure components by adding steel rather than fiber composite, and the implications with regards to vehicle light-weighting are discussed. It is shown that fiber composite strengthening of vehicle roof structures has the potential to contribute to higher roof strengths and/or light-weighting in future vehicle fleets.
