39、1Breaking loads are based on tensile stress area and strengthsof 85 ksi max (AF), 64 ksi min (CW), and 82 ksi for CW1. The minimumloads for the CW and CW1 conditions are based on the tensile propertiesof 80 ksi minimum material strength and 102 ksi minimum materialstrength, respectively, reduced by
40、20 % to allow for the head criticalnature of these configurations. See Note A in Table 1.
