Re: "Load Bearing Surface"

Well they answered my question...I think?

ID: 1773 Section: 4.3.3 Status: Answered Date Answered: 2/28/2005

Q: We designed and built a robot that would tip from 38x28 to 38x60. The “new” base and drive train is “blatantly obvious that our robot is in the LZ” and ”has a load bearing surface in contact with the hdpe”. Is our robot in the LZ?

A: If we understand your question correctly, yes. Robots that "flop" basically must declare a 28" x 38" of their robot to be the "robot base." This is the section that the referees will always use to determine if your robot is in the loading zone.

Does this mean we can declare the 28x38 section of the robot that makes contact with the LZ the "Base"

I'm not sure they followed your lead Ken. Great suggestion, maybe too late? All I know is the area of our robot that covers the LZ is the base, the rest ... who cares.
