• Note that the mass per unit length is 1.325 kg/m and
the resulting mass of the whole drive shaft is 2.3 kg
• With the assumed lay-up, the drive shaft contains
56.5% GFRP and 43.5% CFRP
• Assuming a cost of $2.64/kg for the glass plies and
$26.4/kg for the carbon plies the total cost of the
drive shaft would be $27.50
