This draft establishes a method of determining the rates of growth of fatigue cracks as a function of the cyclic range of their stress intensity factors and of determining the threshold stress intensity factor ranges below which the rate of crack growth rapidly becomes infinitesimally small. Covers definitions, main symbols, principle, test equipment, specimens, stress intensity factors, crack length, test procedure, data analysis and test report.
