Abstract The article deals briefly with the development of the method of calculating static strength, and it analyzes the shortcomings of the traditional force method. It shows that the energy method, which takes into account the margin of ductility, strain- hardening and low- temperature strengthening of steels and alloys (in addition to strength characteristics), ensures in stress analysis fuller use of the real strength of structural materials, especially of ductile and cold- resistant ones, than the force method, and provides for savings of materials in the production of structures. The transition from the force method to the energy method of determining allowable stresses is substantiated by tests of pressure vessels at 293 and 77
