This Standard cancels and replaces ECSS-E-ST-32C (31 July 2008).
Scope
This Standard defines the mechanical engineering requirements for structural engineering. It specifies the requirements to be considered in all engineering aspects of structures: requirement definition and specification, design, development, verification, production, in-service and eventual disposal.
The Standard applies to all general structural subsystem aspects of space products including: launch vehicles, transfer vehicles, re-entry vehicles, spacecraft, landing probes and rovers, sounding rockets, payloads and instruments, and structural parts of all subsystems.
This Standard may be tailored for the specific characteristics and constraints of a space project in conformance with ECSS-S-ST-00.
