Human Engineering Aspects of a Deep Dive Facility.

Abstract

The Defence and Civil Institute of Environmental Medicine is designing a Deep Dive Facility which will be constructed to conduct in-house research into physiological and operational problems of deep diving. This report discusses the habitability requirements of such a facility, and considers the human engineering aspects of hyperbaric chamber design. Based on these criteria, an optimum interior layout for the chamber complex is described. (Author)
