it is executed on the basis inequality (1).
At designing the shape, sizes and their material for structural members are
determined on prescribed value of ultimate load.

That the requirement about absence of residual strains was executed, ultimate load
should be more Pl PuPl so that under selection of the sizes of structural members
determining strength it was executed not only the second, but also first of inequalities
(2). Therefore value Рu, should be more Pl at least in ratio

that is
Рumin= Pl fmin,
where f – is safety factor.
As always calculations contain some inaccuracy, properties of materials and
semimanufactured materials have some dispersion, and all structure can have some
deviations on value Рd. at designing on values Рumin it can appear, that the first
inequality (2) actually is not executed.
Sometimes it can receive, that real Рd will be less Pl that is there can be a
structural failure in flight. It is necessary to take into account, that strength of airplanes
in operation decreases because of wearing, corrosion, an aging, a fatigue. To take into
account it, calculation is made on Рu:
Рu = Рl f, (3)
Here f > fmin.
Except static interpretation safety factor f has statistical interpretation on a curve
of density probability for distribution loading in operation and dispersion of structural
strength. By consideration Pl and Рu as random processes the factor f is got out so that
the probability of structure destruction in operation would be less prescribed value. This
value is estimated by order F=3 10-3 -5 10-3 for 10000 hours of flight.

3. Factor of safety.
From here
Рu= f Pl.
It is got out so that to take into account all mentioned factors, on the basis of in-
service experience and is established АR. As a rule, f 1.5 and also it changes within
the limits of 1,5 < f < 2,5.
The safety factor is equal f =1.5 for aggregates and the units from metal by
cutting, extrusion.
The bigger values f are established for more responsible units, for units which
strength properties are more difficult for supervising and for less investigated loading
conditions.
Units manufactured by a casting from metal, plastic and CM have the greater f,
taking into account greater dispersion Рd. To them it is applied f > 2. For the CM
depending on a kind is established 2 < f < 4. So, that notwithstanding what a CM have
higher specific strength because of big f and therefore Рu a structure weight can be more
from the CM, than from metal. The task of technologists is to provide quality,
homogeneity to reduce dispersion of strength, an aging of CM, to improve technological
effectiveness, to save labor, the cost a CM and then they will find broad application. It
is similarly with aluminum. In 1860 it was more expensive than gold, and now basically
airplanes are manufactured from it and it is cheap and technological.

and field of application. It is necessary to choose from this set that analytical model,
which to the greatest degree corresponded features of strength research of the given
airplane.
The special set of the analytical models is represented by the analytical models for
designing calculations, destination for initial selection of cross sections and mutual
arrangement of loaded elements. In the basis of these analytical models (AM) there is
the qualitatively correct analysis of a structure which allows to estimate forces, accepted
any element, at main for him the critical loading condition.
Example. The approximate calculation of the torque box type 2-spar swept wing
is AM of a 4-belt swept-back torque box, which is used in final design.
of these stresses is established on the basis of experimental data for maintenance of the
given service life. These directive stresses are established separately for various
elements of a wing: panels, spars, longitudinal joints, transversal joints, edgings and
other strengthening. Thus, directive stresses act in a role of criteria of strength both for
service life and for static strength. Thus it is necessary to notice, that directive stresses
are not the characteristic only a material, and they are the characteristic and structure
and material and technology. Therefore their value can be received now only
experimentally and only for particular structures. The data received in one design office
cannot be used at designing airplanes in others as they differ on a structure and on
technology.
Requirements of maintenance of static strength prevail for normal category
airplanes as they have higher limit load factor and less duration and intensity of
operation. In these airplanes composite materials are used more widely.
Concerning military airplanes it is necessary to tell, that now in view of increase
of their cost, small fighting application and small fighting losses the factor of their
service life has essentially increased, and they also began to be projected on directive
stresses. Frequently these airplanes fly on supersonic speeds and are subjected by
aerodynamic heating so frequently they are made from titanium alloys and stainless
steels.
