Determination of overall factor of safety of a design involves repeated calculation of factor of safety at critical points in the design. For a given stress state at a point, factor of safety is calculated by rst nding the principal stresses and then comparing them with the maximum safe stress that can applied without causing failure of the material according to an appropriate failure theory.
