Abstract:  
Guidelines for choosing appropriate intensity for the desired results of Shot Peening originated from car design and shot peening was found to impart 40% greater efficiency to car structures (SAE 1973). Saving on the weights of valves, gears, shafts, chambers, pressure vessels and steel weights made car design more competitive.
