Safety factor calculation: material strength/design load.
For example, the safety factor of scaffolding is 4. This means any component of scaffolding should be able to withstand 4 times the load applied. The safety factor of a man lift basket is 10.

Hi,
The safety factor is the structural strength divided by the minimum structural strength required. The greater the safety factor, the lower the likelihood of structural failure and the more stress cycles the structure can withstand. Small structures often have large safety factors because of the minimum gauge that can be crafted. Very thin sheets often cost the same or even more than thick sheets because of the tighter tolerances required, so thicker sheets are often chosen than necessary. Generally, the greater the safety factor, the lower the cost of crafting, designing, handling, and testing the structure. However, this is a vague relationship that is not modeled in these scripts. The safety factor is used to calculate the effective tensile.
Effective tensile = tensile dimensionality * tensile energy / safety factor / (1.0 + 0.13 * log(reusability))
