Allowable Stress Method.- Fatigue can be considered in the early stages of design by establishing approximate allowable cyclic-stress levels. ... These allowable cyclic stresses serve as a guide to size the tubular joints in the structure. This method assumes that cyclic stress is proportional to some structure response, such as maximum base shear. 1, record 1, English, - allowable%20stress%20method
