Tensile and fatigue behaviors of selective laser melted titanium alloy were investigated in the as-built condition. The alloy has a high defect density, and its tensile properties are comparable to those of wrought alloys, but the fatigue strength is significantly reduced. The FGA plastic zone is similar to the martensite laths width. The critical size of fatigue failure is analyzed by the K-T diagram. A new value is obtained based on the defect characteristics. Using the probability statistical, the maximum effective size of the defect considering the shape was calculated, and the competitive relationship of the defects was analyzed by volume density.
