Aircraft Ground Support Equipment – General Requirements

2024-04-26
WIP
ARP1247F
This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) outlines the basic general design requirements for ground support equipment used in the civil air transport industry. It is intended to assist in standardizing requirements for various configurations of equipment. For procurement of equipment, sections of this document should be specified with due consideration of the functional and environmental requirements of the equipment, and to the relative cost of satisfying those requirements.

High Flow Liquid Hydrogen Fueling Couplings for Aerospace and Heavy Transport Applications

2024-04-15
WIP
AIR8999
The SAE AE-5CH Taskgroup has determined that high flow liquid hydrogen fueling couplings need to be developed in order to fast fill aircraft at the airport. Though the flow rates from a current liquid hydrogen bayonet connect may reach the lower bound flow rates of regional aircraft, there are some shortcomings to this connector for aerospace. For this reason a new specification for flow rates for regional to narrowbody (and potentially later widebody) are to be developed in this documenet. Harmonization for lower flow rates (such as up to 20kg/minute) are planned to be harmonized with ground vehicle fueling such as with ISO 13984. Within this document,coupling descriptions including Flow rates from 84 to 200 kg/minute will be evaluated (and potentially higher), and requirements and testing and safety targets will be specified.

Design and Safety Criteria for Passenger Boarding Stairways

2024-03-22
WIP
AIR6133A
This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) is broken into various categories for convenience and ease of identification. It is the purpose of this document to provide certain criteria for the design and selection of stairways, for the boarding of passengers onto an aircraft. The criteria presented are limited to those factors which affect the safety of the passengers and are coordinated, where applicable, with the practices of the architectural profession, with respect to the design of stairways. Comprehensive design requirements for passenger stairs can be found in the industry documents listed under 2.1.3, 2.1.4, and 2.1.5 hereafter. The recommended practices are applicable to both mobile variable-elevation type stairways and to fixed-elevation stairways of the type built into an aircraft fuselage.

Design of Aircraft Deicing Facilities

2024-02-21
WIP
ARP4902D
This document provides information and guidance material to assist in assessing the need for and feasibility of developing deicing facilities, the planning (size and location) and design of deicing facilities, and assessing environmental considerations and operational considerations associated with de-icing facilities. The document presents relevant information necessary to define the need for a deicing facility and factors influencing its size, location, and operation. The determination of the need for deicing facilities rests with Airports. Although this document intends to provide information to airport operator and deicing facility planner/designer, all stakeholders, including deicing service providers, should be involved in the development process.

Metric Sockets, Wrenches, Hand Twelve Point, High Strength, Thin Wall

2024-02-14
WIP
AS955A
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) covers high strength thin wall (commercial) metric sockets, universal metric sockets, metric box wrenches and metric torque adaptors which possess the strength, clearances, and internal wrenching design so configured that, when mated with 12 point fasteners conforming to the requirement of ISO 4095, they shall transmit torque to the fastener without bearing on the outer 5% of the fastener's wrenching points. This standard provides additional requirements beyond ASME B107.100 and B107.5M appropriate for aerospace use. Inclusion of dimensional data in this document is not intended to imply that all of the products described herein are stock production sizes. Consumers are requested to consult with manufacturers concerning lists of stock production sizes. The dimensional limits of box and combination wrench lengths have been established to provide configuration control for tool storage applications.
