This standard BS EN 16603-32:2014 Space engineering. Structural general requirements is classified in these ICS categories:
49.140 Space systems and operations
ECSS-E-ST-32C (Space engineering – Structural) defines the mechanical engineering requirements for structural engineering.
This Standard 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.
