For low allowable temperatures within the application limits of load cases II and III according to AD 2000-Merkblatt W 10, reducing the number of load cycles is not required.
7.3.6
For low allowable temperatures below -200°C you have to shorten the checking intervals by half, i.e. the internal checks per section 7.3.1 and 7.3.4 have to be performed after having reached one quarter of the determined number of load cycles at the latest.
