Hi All,
I am new to automotive and would like to know what standard is usually used when checking strength? Is it using factor of safety or margin of safety? Sometimes people confuse with safety factor with factor of safety...
If it is not a structural part and it is more concerned of quality check, do we still use factory of safety/ margin of safety when checking whether max stress exceeds allowable strength? Thank you!
