The U.S. Army Natick Research, Development and Engineering Center (NRDEC) is developing new Battalion Aid Stations (BAS) and Division Clearing Stations (DCS). A DCS will be twice the size of a BAS, as it will most likely consist of two interconnected BAS shelters. NRDEC requires that BAS shelter utilities be packaged to fit onto the U.S. Army M101A1 3/4-ton cargo trailer. The U.S. Army Belvoir Research, Development and Engineering Center (BRDEC) is developing the environmental control, chemical protection, and power generation systems (utilities) to be used with BAS/DCS shelters. Principal conclusions and recommendations presented in this report are (1) All BAS shelter utilities can be packaged to fit onto M101A1 cargo trailer, (2) The cargo trailer will require specific weight reduction modification to remain within the full load cross-country weight of 2840 pounds. In its new design concept the load capabilities of the M101A1 cargo trailer will not support all required DCS utilities due to increased DCS utility loads, and equipment size and weights, 4) BRDEC should proceed with the BAS utility package and trailer modification, and (5) BRDEC should further analyze and accurately determine utility loads, and equipment sizes and weights to be trailer mounted.
