Abstract: A new calculation method for disc springs with contact flats and reduced thickness is presented in this paper. The analysis aims at putting in evidence the contradiction in standard norms where the standard calculation method for this kind of Belleville springs is used. On the basis of this analysis it is found that standard methods do not work for reduced disc springs because they lead to dangerously wrong results and software developed during this study shows how it is possible to create a new type of standard tables for this kind of springs.
