Field Tests of AM3 Landing Mat.

摘要

Field tests were conducted on AM3 landing mat to determine the capability of the mat to support helicopter operations when floated on water and when placed on marshy soil having a CBR of about 0.25 percent. The mat was an aluminum, cellular-type structure filled with polyurethane foam, with top and bottom facings fabricated from aluminum alloy sheets. The side and end connectors were of an extruded aluminum alloy. (Author)
