User manual of the MechCalc BS 7910 fracture assessment calculator: what it can and cannot calculate, the inputs of the eight cards, calculation steps 1 to 11, how to read the verdict and the two reserve factors, and the limits.
A guide to BS 7910:2019 Annex P: it explains the physical meaning of the reference stress Ο_ref and the reference-stress method, the equivalence of Ο_ref and the limit load P_L, how it gives the FAD horizontal axis L_r, the general framework and net-section degradation, the plastic cut-off L_r,max and flow stress, and the calculation steps β with original diagrams and a live worked example.
A guide to BS 7910:2019 Clause 7 fracture assessment: starting from the two failure modes, it uses a single Failure Assessment Diagram (FAD) to tie together the fracture-mechanics principle, the K_I / Ο_ref / K_r / L_r calculation chain, and the standard assessment steps β with original diagrams and a live worked example.
