This paper proposes a standardized vehicle body repair manual for vehicles with major damage to the rear side members caused by rear-end collisions. The manual is used to refine the vehicles. Typical work involves replacing large traffic accident modes with new members or modifying and aligning existing members. If repairs are made for various reasons, the members should be attached based on the body of a new vehicle. Unlike new vehicle members, the accident vehicle repair process depends heavily on the operator's skilled skills (i.e., the performance, purpose, level, and quality of the body replacement work due to the nature of the vehicle body replacement work). When repairing or replacing a rear side member of a body repair, three methods of operation are applied because the damage and deformation vary depending on the object of the other party, although the degree of damage varies. There is no standardized manual for side member over-hole replacement, partial replacement, or partial modification, since these repair methods vary depending on the operator's thoughts and angle of view. Therefore, customers should use standardized vehicle repair manuals to ensure that their vehicle receives the same repair when damaged. This study is expected to develop a standardized vehicle repair manual to reduce the drop in used market prices after replacement or repair of rear side members at vehicle repair plants.
Cars serve as vehicles for the conveyance of both passengers and cargo. Inevitably, traffic accidents constitute a significant facet of vehicular operation. These accidents manifest in various forms, including frontal, rear-end, and lateral collisions. While the resultant vehicular damages may exhibit similarities, they remain inherently distinct. Owing to the intricate nature of automotive body repairs, simplistic adherence to textbook doctrines proves inadequate. The rectification of damaged vehicle bodies hinges upon the practitioner's experiential acumen. Consequently, discourse pertaining to body repair technology necessitates grounding in empirical data encompassing prevailing industry norms and attendant financial implications. Variability in individualized methodologies can engender substantial temporal and monetary outlays within the domain of automotive bodywork. Moreover, the integration of novel material technologies within vehicular structures mandates a perpetual pursuit of knowledge and empirical inquiry into the domain of vehicle body repair procedures, particularly as applied to emerging materials. Compounding this imperative is the unwavering commitment to preserving the safety paradigm from the vehicle owner's perspective, ensuring that restorative interventions subsequent to accidents do not compromise safety benchmarks.
Car accidents require continuous access to new technologies in the field of maintenance that cannot be achieved by textbook theory alone due to the nature of body repair without the same damage and repair conditions. In the case of vehicle repairs due to unexpected accidents, it is difficult to satisfy the needs of the vehicle owner, so in this study, it is possible to restore them to their original state with improved technology like the vehicle owner. Better maintenance technologies have been explored: complete replacement of side quarter panels, partial replacement and partial modification of side quarter panels, as well as tangible and intangible effects such as not applying depreciation rates due to traffic accidents, preventing environmental pollution and maximizing owner satisfaction.
