Major sources of fatigue and continuous change of emphasis on different aspects of problem are considered with particular reference to some aircraft; principal fatigue items are usually wing tension-carrying members, and since most significant loads are those due to ground-to-air cycle and gusts, this part of structure is particularly sensitive to flight pattern; design criteria and factors in choice of materials; weight breakdown of structure of typical jet transport for different materials and alloy grades is also presented; manufacturing stage, development testing stage, and operational stage.
