Wallops Flight Facility Integration and Testing Customer Handbook

The Wallops Integration and Testing Handbook is a guide for planning operations at Wallops testing facilities. It provides a summary of the capabilities and technical specifications of available facilities. This handbook prescribes the information to be provided by the user that will enable the integration and testing team to effectively plan for and support the facility user’s project. Note that each facility plans for availability based on current workloads/ mission schedules. For example, sounding rockets may have between 20 and 35 missions in work at one time. Also note that special training, such as cleanroom certification, electrostatic discharge (ESD) or confined space training may be required for entrance to some facilities.

Handbook for Additively Manufactured Materials: Microstructure, Properties, and Fractography

As the additive manufacturing (AM) industry has grown and the processes have matured more alloys have been adapted to the various AM processes. Understanding the microstructure and properties of these AM alloys is important in designing parts that perform appropriately in application. For decades materials handbooks have been informative references for designers and engineers alike to know what properties and microstructures to expect in alloys produced by other forms of manufacturing. AM alloy references for properties and microstructures have been largely limited to literature that may not be subject to the same industry standard heat treatments or in standard process parameters. NASA has worked with partners to characterize various commercially available AM alloys with a high degree of traceability. This work aims utilize industry-relevant, traceable datasets to develop a new handbook for AM alloys to better inform designers and engineers of the microstructures, fractures, and first order properties from over 30 AM alloys produced across the industry.

Integrated Baseline Review (IBR) Handbook

The purpose of this handbook is intended to be a how-to guide to prepare for, conduct, and close-out an Integrated Baseline Review (IBR). It discusses the steps that should be considered, describes roles and responsibilities, tips for tailoring the IBR based on risk, cost, management insight benefits, and provides lessons learned from past IBRs. The appendices contain example documentation typically used in connection with an IBR. Note: Appendices are examples only, and should be tailored to meet the needs of individual projects and contracts. Following the guidance in this handbook will help customers and suppliers preparing for an IBR understand the expectations of the IBR, and ensure that the IBR meets the requirements for both in-house and contract efforts.
