Book Description
This study was conducted to evaluate replacement panels and keylock assemblies as accessories for use with AM2 landing mat in the construction of forward airfields. It was also desired to evaluate the capability of the AM2 mat to withstand traffic when laid in a longitudinal direction. A test section with a 10-CBR subgrade and the AM2 mat laid in both longitudinal and transverse directions, with the accessories included, was constructed and subjected to accelerated traffic of a 27,000-lb single-wheel load with a 30.00-7.7 tire inflated to 400 psi.

Book Description
This investigation was conducted to evaluate a modified and connector on the AM2 landing mat fabricated by Harvey Aluminum, Inc., Torrance, Calif. A test section, consisting of three clay subgrade items with different strengths and one sand item, was constructed and surfaced with the modified AM2 mat. The test section was subjected to traffic representing 1600 operational cycles of an aircraft having a 60,000-lb gross weight with a single-wheel main-gear assembly load of 27,000 lb and a 30-7.7 tire inflated to 400 psi.

ISBN:
Category : Landing mats
Languages : en
Pages : 90
Book Description
The investigation was conducted to evaluate three-piece AM2 landing mat. The mat was fabricated from three 8-in.-wide extrusions welded together to form a 2-ft-wide plank. A test section consisting of one sand item and three clay subgrade items with various CBR strength values was constructed and surfaced with the three-piece mat. The test section was subjected to uniform-coverage and single-line traffic representing operations of an aircraft having a 60,000-lb gross weight with a single-wheel main gear assembly load of 27,000 lb with a 30.7.7 tire inflated to 400 psi.

Evaluation of Various Sizes of Harvey Aluminum AM2 Landing Mat

ISBN:
Category : Landing mats
Languages : en
Pages : 84
Book Description
This investigation was conducted to determine the optimum panel size for the AM2 mat fabricated by Harvey Aluminum Company, Torrance, Calif. The basic AM2 mat was designed to sustain 1600 operational cycles of an aircraft having a gross weight of 60,000 lb with a single-wheel main-gear-assembly load of 27,000 lb and a 30-7.7 tire inflated to 400 psi. A test section consisting of three items with different subgrade strengths and surfaced with three different size mat panels was constructed and subjected to 188 coverages (equivalent to 1600 cycles of aircraft operations) of accelerated traffic of a 27,000-lb single-wheel load with a 30-7.7 tire inflated to 400 pri. The mat was also tested for its ability to sustain 1600 passes of a 39,000-lb single-wheel load applied in a single track to represent the calculated loading that would be imposed on a landing mat during launching of a 60,000-lb aircraft by catapult.

Evaluation of Guide Rail in Conjunction with Kaiser and Harvey Landing Mat (AM2)
Author: Cecil D. Burns
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Airplanes
Languages : en
Pages : 92
Book Description
The investigation was conducted to evaluate the performance, under simulated aircraft loadings, of a guide rail (for use in assisted take-offs) designed for use with Airfield Matting No. 2 (AM2), Kaiser Aluminum Company's AM2 when used in conjunction with guide rail and when used without guide rail, and modified AM2 from Harvey Aluminum, Inc., when used in conjunction with guide rail. It was specifically desired to determine the effect that subgrade strength and soil type would have on the performance of the guide rail and AM2. (Author).
