Joint with Section Reinforcements

Feature A -
Pedal Bar Joint

In Feature A, the joint between the foot pedal and the brake bar is subject to a significant torque and force.

The joint should be reinforced with two triangular sections to stiffen up the joint and reduce the bending stresses.

The pedal bar joint does need to be reinforced.
