Abstract
In order to determine the best way to evaluate materials selection from an economic standpoint, a discussion of conventional cost estimation is given versus a more precise technique, Technical Cost Modeling.
Automotive body panels are used as an application for the costing techniques; conclusions about fabrication costs and parts consolidation are drawn with regard to these parts.
