A novel approach for design and material selection of polymeric bared composite automotive components is presented in this paper. This approach utilises an expert system KEE (Knowledge Engineering Environment) tool-kit and concentrates on selecting suitable materials for automotive components, in particular for major elements of pedal box system namely the mounting bracket, the accelerator, the clutch and the brake pedals. Factors such as mechanical, physical and chemical properties, economic and manufacturing consideration were used in the material selection process. The material must satisfy all the above requirements in order to become a suitable candidate for a particular component. These requirements were then translated in the form of heuristic rules in the expert system. If any one of the rules was violated the system gave a message about the unsuitability of the material for a particular component using the constraint violation facility. Then the system proceeded to search for other materials until finally only the materials that satisfied all the rules were selected as suitable materials.
