A Beam Builder has been constructed for fabricating triangular shaped truss configuration aluminum beams of unlimited length for potential use on large structures in space. A demonstration model was developed for MSFC by Grumman Aerospace Corporation. The machine and the beam it produces are described and plans for the total systems evaluation inhouse at MSFC are presented. (Stoehr)
