Document Scope
Document Scope
The purpose of this Standard is to specify the minimum structural design requirements for the design, development, and verification of windows, glass, and ceramic structure included in National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) vehicles/elements, habitats, space suits, all orbital support equipment (OSE), and flight support equipment (FSE). Although this Standard primarily addresses structural design requirements for glass and ceramics, it also includes design and verification requirements for non-structural glass and ceramic components. Optical performance and radiation specifications are not provided in this document.
