The load was inspected after eachimpact for movement and damage to the cargo. Lid undercutting and drum compaction were observed atall impact speeds. Drum failure occurred at 8.77 mph.

PART 1

INTRODUCTION

A. BACKGROUND. The U.S. Army Defense Ammunition Center and School (USADACS),

Validation Engineering Division (SMCAC-DEV), was tasked by USADACS, Transportation

Engineering Division (SMCAC-DET), to test a loading and bracing procedure for nitroguanidine

packed in 15.5"-diameter by 24.4"-high Department of Transportation (DOT) 21C fiber drams iii

a 50'-6"-long boxcar. Inert test samples of the DOT 21C fiber drums were fabricated and loaded

into the boxcar. The boxcar was then tested lAW TP-91-01, Transportability Testing

Procedures, July 1991, for rail Lnpacts at 4, 6, and 8.1 miles per hour (mph) in the forward

direction and 8.1 mph in the reverse direction.

B. AUTHORITY. This test was conducted IAW mission responsibilities delegated by U.S.

Army Armament, Munitions and Chemical Command (AMCCOM), Rock Island, IL

61299-6000. Reference is made to Change 4, 4 October 1974, to AR 740-1, 23 April 1971,

Storage and Supply Activity Operations; AMCCOMR 10-17, 13 January 1986, Mission and

Major Functions of USADACS.

C. BIJCTIVE• The objective of this test was to test the loading and bracing in a 50'-6"-long

boxcar of nitroguanidine packed in 15.5"-diameter by 24.4"-high DOT 21C fiber drums to

TP-91-01, Transportability Testing Procedures, July 1991.

D. CONLUI•NQ. Rail impacting the boxcar loaded with 876 DOT 21C fiber drums at 4, 6,

and 8.1 mph in the forward direction caused the load to compact 36 inches. The 36-inch

displacement was measured at the center line of the boxcar, from the end of the load to the

plywood liner in the nonimpact end of the car. Drum lids had undercut into adjacent drums in

the direction of impact. Load compaction occurred after each impact.

1-1

After reverse impact at 8.1 mph, the load compacted 30 inches from the end wall opposite the

impact end of the railcar. That is, the 36-inch displacement at the impact end of the boxcar was

closed, and a 30-inch displacement opened up at the nonimpact end of the boxcar. Drum side

walls were crushed at three stacks from the impacted end walls.

E. RECOMMENDATION. It is recommended that the DOT 21C fiber drums be rebuilt to

resemble the actual product's physical characteristics and the rail impact test be redone, if an

approved loading and bracing method is still required.

PART 3

TEST PROCEDURES

A. Rail impact testing is accomplished to assure regulatory compliance IAW previously

approved and standardized procedures. This test was performed using inertly-loaded items

which were equal in weight, correctly located at the center of gravity, and general in character to

the material ultimately shipped.

B. The test load or vehicle was positioned in/on a railcar. For containers, the loaded container

was positioned on a container chassis and securely locked in place using the twist locks at each

corner. The container chassis was secured to a railcar. Equipment needed to perform the test

included the specimen (hammer) car, five empty railroad cars connected together to serve as the

anvil, and a railcar locomotive. These anvil cars were positioned on a level section of track with

air and hand brakes set with the draft gear compressed. The locomotive unit pulled the specimen

car several hundred yards away from the anvil cars and, then, pushed the specimen car toward

the anvil cars at a predetermined speed, disconnected from the specimen car approximately

50 yards away from the anvil cars, and allowed the specimen car to roll freely along the track

until it struck the stationary anvil cars. This constituted an impact.

C. Impacting was accomplished at speeds of 4 and 6 mph and at least 13 km (8.1 mph) in one

direction and at a speed of at least 13 km (8.1 mph) in the opposite direction. The 4 and 6 mph

impact speeds were approximate; the 8.1 mph speed was a minimum. Impact speeds were

determined by using an electronic counter to measure the time required for the specimen car to

traverse an 11-foot distance immediately prior to contact with the anvil cars.

D. INSPETON AND DATA COLLECTION At selected intervals during testing, thorough

inspections of the specimen loads were made by the technically proficient personnel to collect

3-1

data on the specimen load and equipment resulting from the above test load steps. This data are

recorded in part 4, following.
