Section VIII Div. 2 - Fatigue Analysis
Section VIII Div. 2 - Fatigue Analysis
(OP)
During a meeting last week, one of my fellow engineers who had just returned from an ASME course on Div. 2 said that he learned that fatigue analyses are required for products built to Part 4 (by rule) as well as Part 5 (by analysis). This contradicts what another engineer and I believe to be true. I am trying to find the answer through reading my class notes and companion book but can not spot an explicit answer. Can anyone confirm or deny this for me and give reference to the the particular part of the code that discusses it.
Thanks
Thanks

Per paragraph 2.2.2.1(f), the users's design specification must include enough information to determine whether the screening criteria can exclude a fatigue analysis. However if you cannot exclude the analysis, it should be performed per paragraph 5.5.
