  • Loads and Weights (Transport.)
  • Containers
DEF

Total weight of the freight container and its payload.

Record 2 2002-01-24

English

Subject field(s)
  • Orbital Stations
CONT

The EXPRESS Rack concept was derived from the researchers’ desire to have a simple hardware interface and a streamlined process to get their experiments to orbit quickly. The EXPRESS Rack provides simple, standard interfaces. Two types of payload accommodations are offered : Middeck Locker type interfaces and International Subrack Interface Standard drawer interfaces. Middeck Locker interfaces are offered to allow payloads(a middeck locker or equivalent replacement container) that have previously flown in the shuttle middeck, Spacelab, SpaceHab, or MIR to transition to ISS [International Space Station] using the same interface. Eight single middeck locker positions are offered by the EXPRESS Rack. Single, double, or quad equivalent containers may be accommodated by the EXPRESS Rack in the locker positions.

OBS

middeck locker interface: term officially approved by the International Space Station official approval Group (ISSOAG).

Key term(s)

Record 3 2001-07-09

English

Subject field(s)
  • Orbital Stations
CONT

The EXPRESS Rack utilizes an International Standard Payload Rack(ISPR) in conjunction with secondary structure and avionics hardware, resulting in a simple payload interface. The rack provides accommodations for eight middeck lockers and two Standard Interface Rack(SIR) drawers. Each middeck location can accommodate 72 pounds of experiment equipment, including container weight. Each SIR drawer position accommodates 64 pounds, including the weight of the drawer. A total of 2 kW of 28 Vdc power is provided to the payloads in the rack, with each payload position receiving up to 500 W.

OBS

standard interface rack drawer: term officially approved by the International Space Station official approval Group (ISSOAG).

Record 7 1988-10-25

English

Subject field(s)
  • Tolerances and Modular Co-ordination (Construction)
CONT

floor loading capability : In general use the term "floor loading" signifies the static or dynamic loading imposed by the payload or by wheeled equipment used to pack or empty the container. But in the context of freight container testing, the term is used to indicate the ability of a container floor to withstand loads imposed by wheeled equipment having defined characteristics.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Calcul, tolérances et modulation (Construction)
CONT

Le calcul des contraintes dans les dalles de béton soumises à de fortes charges mobiles a permis de déterminer les épaisseurs de dalles à prévoir en fonction: de la résistance du sol, de la résistance du béton utilisé, de l'importance des charges ainsi que de leur position par rapport au bord libre de la dalle. (...) L'étude de l'effet de ces facteurs montre que la capacité de charge d'une dalle dépend principalement de son épaisseur, de sa résistance à la flexion et de la surface d'application de la charge.

OBS

Le terme "aptitude au chargement du plancher" est normalisé par l'ISO.
