§ 192.3

Explanation of terms.

As used herein, the following definitions apply:

(a) Engineering for Transportability is the performance of those functions required in identifying and measuring the limiting criteria and characteristics of transportation systems; and the integration of these data into the design of materiel to utilize operational and planned transportation capability effectively.

(b) Transportability means the inherent capability of materiel to be moved by towing, by self-propulsion, or by carrier via railways, highways, waterways, pipelines, oceans and airways.

Directive 4100.35, Development of Ingrated Logistics Support for Systems and Equipments, June 19, 1964).1

(b) When planning and designing new or modified materiel, transportability criteria for all possible modes of transportation to be employed shall be considered in order to assure that items are so designed and constructed that they can be efficiently moved by available means of transportation.

(c) Equipment to be developed or procured will be designed so that its outside dimensions and gross weight (axle loads for vehicles) will permit handling, movement, and transfer among the various transportation systems that are or are expected to be available during its operating life.

(d) Only in exceptional cases may equipment be designed which will require special or unique arrangement of schedules, rights-of-way, clearances, or other operating conditions. In addition, equipment may be designed to the capabilities of a specific mode of transportation only when it has been determined that more restrictive modes will not be used.

(e) During the design, development, or modification of equipment which is large, bulky, heavy, or sensitive to shock and vibration, full consideration will be given to transportation, handling, tiedown, and slinging points, to disassembly capability for transportation purposes, ease of on-site reassembly for use, and safety during transportation. Self-propulsion will also be considered in the design where applicable and necessary. § 192.5
