1 Handy shop formulas Ray Williamson, Ray Williamson Consulting 4984 Wellbrook Drive, New Port Rihey, FL ABSTRACT A olletion of formulas is presented that are useful for those working in optis. INTRODUCTION Optial engineers and researhers have need of equations and formulas sattered throughout their textbooks. Shop personnel may not have textbooks and instead rely on little slips of paper of unknown provenane, dubious reliability, and often missing important qualifiers. My intention is to offer an aessible and reliable alternative. A version of this olletion will also appear in my upoming SPIE Field Guide to Optial Fabriation. 1.

It is a margin fator applied to the predited pressure at whih rupture would our for stati loads, no internal strains, and no surfae srathes. Typial Safety Fator for non-ritial appliations is 4, but higher fators and additional preautions are neessary for situations where injury, great expense, toxiity, or loss of life or mission are possible due to failure. 7.
