The purpose of this safety standard is to provide criteria for utilizing fracture control techniques to design, fabricate, test, and operate aerospace pressure vessels so that associated personnel will be safe. Pressure vessels and systems covered by this standard cannot be designed, fabricated, or tested to meet the requirements specified by the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel code, Section VIII, Divisions 1 and 2, because they are lighter weight to meet flight use requirements. The operational requirements herein are applicable during development, testing, and operations on the ground and during flight.
