1. SCOPE
This technical note defines the load cases and factors for various hoisting, transportation and handling cases for various configurations of spacecraft modules during System AIT. This document will evolve into a separate section to form part of the BepiColombo project ‘Load Synthesis Document’ (Ref: BC.ASU.RP.00009). The spacecraft System AIT configurations have been defined by Thales Alenia.

3. LOAD FACTORS
The following load factors are taken from AD-1 (Ref: GDI-3613) and are used for all hoisting, handling and transportation limit load cases defined in this technical note.
Limit Load (LL)(Flight, OS, VAIT)
Design Load (DL) Qualification Load(QL)
Yield Load (YL) Ultimate Load(UL)
x Design Factor FOSDx Uncertainty Factor FOSUNx Protoflight Factor FOSPF
x Yield Factor FOSY x Ultimate Factor FOSU
x Qualification Factor FOSQ
Figure 3-1: Definition of Loads Flowchart (Ref: AD-1, GDI-3613)
From Figure 3-1 above: Design Loads (DL) Design Load (DL) = Limit Load (LL) x FOSD x Kadd Where FOSD = 1.5 (Ref: AD-1, GDI-189) and (AD-3, SRD-1516) Kadd = 1.2 for Flight H/W (Ref: AD-1, GDI-206) Ultimate Loads (UL) For Flight H/W Ultimate Load (UL) = Design Load (DL) x FOSU Where FOSU = 1.25 (Ref: AD-1, GDI-3229 for Flight H/W, based on joints and inserts) For MGSE Ultimate Load (UL) = Design Load (DL) x FOSU Where FOSU is to be applied in accordance with Table 3-1 and Table 3-2 (Ref: AD-2, MGSE-2067 and MGSE-2113)

4. LOAD CASES
4.1 Ground Operation Load Cases
4.1.1 Hoisting and Handling
The load cases defined in Table 4-1 are for Hoisting and Handling and are taken from AD-2 (Ref: MGSE-4702). Note the load factors are limit cases only and will need to be factored in accordance with Section 3. The load cases defined in Table 4-1 are to be considered for the design of MGSE and S/C interfaces.

4.1.2 Transportation
The load cases defined in Table 4-2 are for Transportation (Air, Road and Ship) and are taken from AD-2 (Ref:MGSE-4702). Note the load factors are limit cases only and will need to be factored in accordance with Section 3. The load cases defined in Table 4-2 are to be considered for the design of MGSE and S/C interfaces.

***) The worst case envelope (peak values) for short time sine dwell or sine sweep sequences are to be considered in the analysis (design, stress); no permanent excitation w.r.t. fatigue ( not as long-term stress).
****) The MGSE design has to protect the F/H to load levels below handling loads under the specified sine or random excitations. The TSCs need a low-frequent suspension with high damping in order to avoid high inputs to modes of the F/H. The loads acting on the container shall not exceed the S/C handling loads in any transport and handling case. The loads acting on the S/C C.o.G. shall not exceed 1.0 g ± 1.0 g in vertical direction and ± 1.5 g in lateral direction.

4.2 S/C Container Load Cases
The following load cases are for transport containers that protect the S/C modules during transit.
4.2.1 MTM and MPO Transport Container
The transport containers shall protect the MTM and MPO flight hardware (e.g. shock absorption) such that the Ground Operation Load Environments as given in Table 4-1 and Table 4-2 do not induce loads on the S/C CofG greater than those defined in Table 4-3. Both vertical and horizontal loads shall be considered as acting simultaneously. These limit accelerations and requirements are taken from AD-2 (Ref: MGSE-4228 and MGSE-4239).

Both vertical and horizontal loads shall be considered as acting simultaneously. These limit accelerations and requirements are taken from AD-2 (Ref: MGSE-4449 and MGSE-4461).

5.2 S/C Transport Configurations
The ‘worst-case’ quasi-static accelerations taken from AD-2 shall be considered for all transport configurations defined in this section. From Table 4-1, Load Case ID5 is applied to the following configurations. In addition, to the quasi-static accelerations the transport dynamic loadings defined in Table 4-2, Loads Cases ID10 to 12 must also be considered. The following transport configurations shall also consider container load cases. The transport container shall protect the flight hardware such that the ground operation load environment s DO NOT induce loads on the S/C CofG greater than those defined in Table 4-3 and Table 4-4.

Note: The loads acting on the S/C CofG shall not exceed 1.0g ± 1.0g in the vertical direction and ± 1.5g in the horizontal direction in accordance with AD-2 (Ref: MGSE-4702). Vertical and Horizontal loads shall be considered acting simultaneously.
