Evans, Kretschmann, Herian and Green (2001) discuss in detail how one can develop design values under this standard that are consistent with how past species have been done. Since many of the calculations in the standard are difficult and therefore easy to make mistakes on, particularly when trying to do the calculations in a spreadsheet as most recent submission have been done, they introduce a set of computer programs that handle some of the calculations and can reduce the difficulties and potential errors in the process.
This web page links to computer programs that can be run over the web and the Fortran versions of the programs that can be downloaded, compiled and run on your computer.
