Margin of Safety and Vibration/Shock Specs for General Marine
Margin of Safety and Vibration/Shock Specs for General Marine
(OP)
I have two questions:
1) For non-critical equipment, what MS would I use for a general marine application for stress.
2) I need to find vibration and shock specs for general marine applications. Mil specs seem too high. I am designing a device with mechanical and electrical components.

RE: Margin of Safety and Vibration/Shock Specs for General Marine
There are ISO specs. for vibrations and shocks, and some Class. point to this ones:
ISO 6954:2000 Mechanical vibration and shock - Guidelines for the measurement, reporting and evaluation of vibration on passenger and merchant ships.
If I remember, there is a graphic with levels of permitted vibration accelerations.
Good luck
