Fracture Safe Design is essential.

It requests first a right material selection, then a suitable material processing, finally a rational material use.

Hardness, Toughness, Strain Hardening, Ductility and Weldability are relevant materials properties.

Thermomechnical History and Weld Metal matching are significant parameters for the building of a component.

Anti Corrosion Procedures, such as Cathodic protection, govern life in service and durability.
