Human Factors Evaluation and Fitting Survey of the Chemical Biological Suit and Associated Equipment in Combination with the Combat Vehicle Crewmember Clothing System

Abstract

This report describes a human factors evaluation of the proposed ground Combat Vehicle Crewmember Clothing System (CVCCS). The CVCCS is an integrated clothing system that will protect the crewmember from environmental, occupational, and imposed hazards. The US Army Natick Research and Development Command tasked the US Army Human Engineering Laboratory to evaluate body extraction, fit, sizing, and general compatibility of the CVCCS. There were a few minor problems which were easily corrected. Comments and recommendations concerning each component of the CVCCS are described.
