The new guideline of VGB provides information of the fundamental basics of lifetime calculations as well as the corresponding evaluation rules and codes. For the examination of calculations the guideline also provides supporting component and load case lists as well as a proposal to evaluate the need for the fatigue assessment of specified components in an individual hydropower plant. Special topics are handling with the evaluation for new power plants as well as for existing power plants. …
