Abstract
The material presented provides a basis for design analysis regarding the cost and functional impact of fastener selection. Certain specific requirements for fasteners identified for severe dynamic environments, such as those encountered in high-performance aircraft, are presented in simplified form as empirical results. The economics of fastener selection are treated in the context of catalogue items versus special order items and the elements of installed cost versus material cost.
