What are the factors that can affect the Factor of safety selection? Correct Answer-The factor of safety is used in designing a machine component. Prior to selecting the correct factor of safety certain points must be taken into consideration such as:
> The properties of the material used for the machine and the changes in its intrinsic properties over the time period of service.
> The accuracy and authenticity of test results to the actual machine parts.
> The applied load reliability.> The limit of stresses (localized).
> The loss of property and life in case of failures.> The limit of initial stresses at the time period of manufacture.
> The extent to which the assumptions can be simplified.
The factor of safety also depends on numerous other considerations such
as the material, the method of manufacturing , the various types of stress, the part shapes etc.
What is heat treatment and why is it done? Correct Answer-Heat treatment can be defined as a combination of processes or operations in
