ABSTRACT
This chapter covers the design data for helical compression springs manufactured from round wire and acting within the elastic range of the material. It is in four sections:
8.1: Elastic Stresses and DeŒections of Helical Compression Springs Manufactured from Round Wire
8.2: Allowable Stresses for Helical Compression Springs Manufactured from Round Wire 8.3: Notes on the Design of Helical Compression Springs Made from Round Wire 8.4: Nested Helical Compression Springs
The design of a helical compression spring to meet speci“c requirements will require going through a number of iterations before a suitable spring design is “nally established.
