description This report presents the manufacturing requirements for fabricating Saturn V service arms and contains design and operating details of the service arms and associated equipment. Part 1 defines the areas of responsibility necessary for the manufacture of Saturn V service arms and associated equipment. Capability requirements, manufacturing processes, special techniques, schedules, and other areas are detailed in Part 1. The manufacturer selected to fabricate the arms and related equipment must meet the requirements (stated in Part 1. Part 2 contains design and operation details of the service arms, Command Module Access Arm, and related equipment used on or in support of the Launcher-Umbilical Tower for the Saturn V Vehicle at Complex 39. The design and construction of all basic arms is similar. Eight service arms are being designed. The arms are being designed to support all umbilical lines necessary to service the various stages of all Saturn V Vehicles. The arms are also being designed to allow personnel access to the vehicle. Some of the arms must be retracted before vehicle lift-off and others will retract following lift-off. This requirement necessitated the design of umbilical disconnect and arm retract devices which would ensure clearance between the arms and vehicle during lift-off. The Command Module Access Arm is a separate design concept. The arm is used only for astronaut access to the Command Module. Part 2 presents the preliminary design directed toward meeting the requirements stated above.
