Bus Construction

Originally, buses were built with a strong, heavy chassis frame which performed the load-bearing function for the entire vehicle. Nowadays, buses are made with self-supporting bodies, the total structure of the bus body performing the entire bearing function.

Studies and tests carried out on vehicles with elastic-bonded body panels have shown that side windows and side panels in particular act as stiffening planes to increase torsional stiffness, adding enormously to the structural rigidity of the vehicle and consequently improving the ride comfort for driver and passengers alike.

Sika offers a complete range of adhesives and sealants specifically formulated to meet the needs of bus manufacturers.
