The primary goal of ASME B106.1M is to prevent failure in rotating shafts. In any mechanical system, shafts are the "backbone" that transmits torque and power. Because they are often subjected to a combination of bending moments, torsional loads, and axial forces, a simple calculation is rarely sufficient.
: Engineers must apply reductions to the material's baseline endurance limit to account for surface finish, size, reliability, and operating temperature. Stress Concentrations
