The damage tolerance approach is widely used in the design and estimation of inspection intervals of safety-relevant metallic components subject to fatigue loading. The approach relies on the knowledge of the fatigue crack propagation characteristics, wherein a relevant role is played by the fatigue crack propagation threshold. Nevertheless, the use of material data determined by testing on conventional specimens is not straightforward in case of thin-walled components such as turbine-blades or additively manufactured parts, in which the local variation of material properties in highly stressed regions must be considered. In these cases, the possibility of investigating the fatigue crack propagation properties on a limited portion of material is crucial. For this purpose, a new test methodology has been developed for small-scale specimens which allows the determination of the intrinsic fatigue crack propagation threshold and the near-threshold regime. The use of small-scale specimens poses a challenge to the applicability of the method to metallic materials, especially regarding the
limitations on material strength and requirements for the application of the linear elastic fracture mechanics concepts. These aspects are discussed in this work. Furthermore, the application on the high strength steel S960QL is presented, along with a comparison with data determined by conventional testing.
