Spline Load Capacity

[phtmh2]

I have a copy of DIN 5466-1 2000-10 which I am trying to use to rate some splines. There are some undefined parameters (stress concentration factors and size factors etc) used in the calculations. There is a note given for these parameters that I have transalated as "Standard in Preparation". Does anyone know if there is a mroe recent version of this standard that includes details of the parameters? Is there another source I can use to calculate the parameters?

I'm not familiar with the DIN, but I'd be surprised that the stress concentration factors are undefined.

IHS (the company my agency uses for access to Codes & Standards) shows the most recent version of the standard as the 2000-10-01 version you have.
