BS EN 16603-32-10 The purpose of this Standard is to define the Factors Of Safety (FOS), Design Factor and additional factors to be used for the dimensioning and design verification of spaceflight hardware including qualification and acceptance tests. This standard is not self standing and is used in conjunction with the ECSS- E-ST-32, ECSS-E-ST-32-02 and ECSS-E-ST-33-01 documents. Following assumptions are made in the document: ● that recognized methodologies are used for the determination of the limit loads, including their scatter, that are applied to the hardware and for the stress analyses; ● that the structural and mechanical system design is amenable to engineering analyses by current state -of-the-art methods and is
conforming to standard aerospace industry practices. Factors of safety are defined to cover chosen load level probability, assumed uncertainty in mechanical properties and manufacturing but not a lack of engineering effort.Factors of safety are defined to cover chosen load level probability, assumed uncertainty in mechanical properties and manufacturing but not a lack of
engineering effort. The choice of a factor of safety for a program is directly linked to the rationale retained for designing, dimensioning and testing within the program.Therefore, as the development logic and the associated reliability objectives are different, specific values are presented for: ● unmanned scientific or commercial satellite, ● expendable launch vehicles,
● man-rated spacecraft, and ● any other unmanned space vehicle (e.g. transfer vehicle, planetary probe). Factors of safety for re- -usable launch \ vehicles a nd man-rated commercial
spacecraft are not addressed in this document. For all of these space products, factors of safety are defined hereafter in the document whatever the adopted qualification logic: proto-flight or prototype model.The factors of safety specified hereafter are applied using a deterministic approach i.e. as generally applied in the Space Industry to achieve the structures standard reliability objectives. Structural safety based on a probabilistic analysis could be an alternate approach but it has to be demonstrated this process achieves the reliability objective specified to the structure. The procedure is approved by the customer.BS EN 16603-32-10 pdf download.
