Overview

Title:  Transportability Criteria Scope:  In accordance with the Department of Defense (DOD) Engineering for Transportability program described in DOD Instruction 4540.7, Operation of the DOD Engineering for Transportability and Deployability Program, this standard establishes basic transportability interface criteria for use in the development and shipment of items of materiel. The standard covers dimensional and weight limitations for all modes of transport to ensure that new and modified systems meet the interface requirements of the Defense Transportation System (DTS) (highways, tunnels, bridges, railways, etc.) and the DTS lift assets (rotary and fixed wing aircraft, railcars, ships, barges, etc.) for unrestricted worldwide transport and deployment. It also covers lifting and tiedown provisions, containerization criteria, overloads, assembly/disassembly, air delivery, shelter criteria, transportability testing, and modeling and simulation of the transportation environment. This standard will allow materiel development and procurement activities to design military equipment to meet the transportability requirements of various modes.
