CRITERIA FOR FRACTURE CONTROL PLANS

The report presents interpretations of the significance of fracture-state criteria and their application in the development of rational fracture-control plans. A 'brief' is evolved for meeting of regulatory and/or contractual requirements, based on scientific and technologically appropriate procedures. It is emphasized that the emerging issues of the 1970's center on technological application of fracture-control principles, in the total context of engineering realities and normal business relationships.
