		Monocoque (French for "single" (mono) and "shell" (coque)) is a construction technique that supports structural load using an object's external skin.
		Monocoque design is so sophisticated that windshield and rear window glass now often make an important contribution to the designed structural strength of automobiles.
		Monocoque designs are favored amongst high-performance cars and racing cars today for their overall structural integrity and the fact that one can design a monocoque out of lightweight materials such as carbon fiber and expect the resulting vehicle to be light, stiff, and stable at high speeds and in tight corners.

	Assessment of a Glued Aluminum Monocoque and Suspension for Formula SAESr Style Racecars
		The material selected for the monocoque was a balsa-wood core with aluminum skins, commonly used in the aircraft industry.
		The main objective in the design of the aluminum composite monocoque was to reduce the weight, increase stiffness, and simplify the design of the racecar.
		During the initial design stages it became evident that the composite monocoque would have many advantages over the steel frame, such as fewer components and the absence of welding.
