Deep Ocean Lift Bag.

Abstract

A lift bag of 10-ton nominal capacity has been fabricated from Kevlar-29 fabric. Laboratory and operational test data are presented together with recommended design changes. The bag weighed 166 pounds in air and required a storage volume of about 15 cubic feet. Ply strength efficiencies of 100% were demonstrated, and maximum working strains encountered during static testing were 3.5%.
