Transportability Testing of the Joint Modular Intermodal Platform (JMIP) Number 2, TP-94-01, Transportability Testing Procedures
Abstract
The U.S. Army Defense Ammunition Center (DAC), Validation Engineering Division (SJMAC-DEV), was tasked by the Logistics Research and Development Activity (AMSRD-AAR-AIL-F), Picatinny Arsenal, NJ to conduct transportability testing on the Joint Modular Intermodal Platform (JMIP) #2 manufactured by SEA BOX Inc, East Riverton, NJ. JMIP #2 was equipped with integral rings to secure the Navy Joint Modular Intermodal Containers (JMIC). The testing was conducted in accordance with TP-94-01, Revision 2, June 2004 `Transportability Testing Procedures." The objective of the testing was to evaluate the Joint Modular Intermodal Platform (JMIP) #2 when transportability tested in accordance with TP-94-01, Revision 2, June 2004 for use during the Limited Military Utility Assessment (LMUA). The following conclusions resulted from the testing of JMIP: 1. JMIP #2, as currently designed, is adequate, to be used to transport the JMIC containers with ammunition, on/off road, using a Load Handling System equipped vehicle during the Limited Military Utility Assessment (LMUA). (Example - PLS truck). 2. JMIP #2, as currently designed, is adequate, to be used to transport the JMIC containers with ammunition, on/off road, in an intermodal container during the LMUA. 3. The maximum gross weight (platform and payload weight) is not to exceed 15,000 pounds during the LMUA.
