In the design of pressure equipment it is necessary to apply the appropriate factors
safety in the use of complex methods, which are known to
in an appropriate manner with an appropriate safety margin with respect to all
types of disorders that come into consideration.
2.2. Design for adequate strength
2.2.1. the pressure equipment must be designed for loadings appropriate to
its intended use and other reasonably foreseeable operating
conditions. It is necessary to take into account the following factors:

(d)) traffic, wind, earthquake,
e) reactionary forces and moments which result from the supports, attachments and
Similarly,
f) corrosion and erosion, fatigue, and the like,
(g)) the decomposition of unstable fluids.
It is necessary to take into account the different loads, which may act together,
taking into account the probability of their simultaneous occurrence.
2.2.2. Design for adequate strength must be based
calculation method a) according to section 2.2.3, if necessary supplemented by a
the experimental method as described in 2.2.4, or
