SAE ARP5305

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) is written for individuals associated with the ground-level testing of large and small gas turbine engines and particularly for those who might be interested in constructing new or adding to existing engine test cell facilities.

The purpose of this document is to provide general guidelines for the design and construction of concrete test cell structures that will resist the effects of normal engine operating loads, dynamic loads due to engine failure, over pressures and cell depression loads, acoustic and environmental loads and engine projectiles.
