n: the ratio of the ultimate load a vessel or structure will sustain to the permissibly safe load placed on it. Such safety factors are incorporated into the design of casing, for example, to allow for unusual burst, tension, or collapse stresses.

n: see safety factor of wire rope.

n: a pipe incorporating twice as many safety design factors as normally used.

n: a measurement of load safety for wire rope obtained by using the following formula: Factor of safety = B/W where- B = nominal catalog breaking strength of the wire rope, and W = calculated total static load. Also called design factor of wire rope.

n: The ratio of the dead weight to the breaking strength of the wire rope .
