901E Training
Unlock the secrets of
MIL-DTL-901E
Shock qualification
5-DAY COURSE AGENDA
Delve deep into the comprehensive arena of
shipboard equipment shock qualification.
By the end of this intensive course, participants will be
equipped with the knowledge and strategies to
craft a streamlined, cost-effective shock
qualification test schedule.
Key Learning Areas:
- The Navy’s shock qualification process.
- Roles, responsibilities, and contractual
stipulations. - Choosing the test platforms and their
constraints. - Navigating shipboard integration, test fixture
demands, and operational standards. - Test failure redesigns and material selections.
- Insight into shock isolator selection, COTs
requirements, and design recommendations for
shock isolators. - Addressing design modification retesting.
Outcomes: - Proficient understanding of testing and
Documentation as per OPNAV and MIL-DTL-901E standards.
- Interpreting and simplifying test specifications,
minimizing confusion and contradictions. - Background:
An evolved continuation of the training imparted
at the S &V Symposium since 2002, this course
centralizes on satisfying shock qualification
requisites efficiently and cost-effectively.
