Voxonda, would you be prepared to share your stress analysis and calculations. I would be very interested to see how you approached it as it's a very complex structure.  

What do you think prompted the original Engineers to put those bars in?  I suspect they were concerned about torsion as the frame flexed around the cross section and this prompted them to over engineer it to provide a wide margin of safety.
