SAFETY FACTOR : ALLOWABLE STRESS DESING
This program is used to calculate the Safety Factor for the tests perfomed on the Cold-Formed Steel Structural elements, assemblies, connections, or details structural members,  where calculation of their strength can not be made in accordance with the provision of the Specification. 

Enter statistical data - resistance factor  for Mm, Vm, Fm, Vf, P, Table F1, Clause F1.1, 1996 AISI Cold-Formed Specification. Page no V-90.

Select appropriate radio button either for strutural members or for the connections.

Mean value of the professional factor 'P' can be taken as the average of the test results.

If yield strenght and the material thickness  of the steel for which the tested sections are formend is larger than the specified value, the test results shall be adjusted down to a specified design values.

Miminum three identical tests shall be prerformed,

Deviation of the individual test result from the average value of the test results shall not exceed + or - 15 percent
