  "Saturn V ground winds program."

  The concept on Saturn V was to "budget" an amount for the dynamic portion of the wind load as a factor on the steady state drag. Wind tunnel tests paralleled the development and fabrication phases. The results indicated that the system was unable to withstand the design winds; thus, a decision was made to implement a viscous damper "fix" on the facility vehicle at the Kennedy Space Center. Damping tests in the Vertical Assembly Building (VAB) will have been completed and response tests on the pad will be in progress at the time of this symposium. This paper will present the history and status of this program to date.

  "Saturn V interface management."

  The purpose of the Saturn V Interface Management System is to establish and maintain interface design compatibility between interfacing items under the design responsibility of different agencies. It provides the management tools for effective change control over the design of designated systems and equipment that have critical interface design requirements.

  "Saturn V launch vehicle ground support equipment fact booklet."

  This booklet has been prepared to provide a quick reference to Saturn V stage peculiar ground support equipment. It consists of visual presentations and a brief description of each major component. It is intended to quickly familiarize concerned elements with the over-all MSFC launch vehicle ground support equipment and is not intended for design usage. The booklet has been prepared in five sections. Section I contains the introductory material and a description of the Saturn V mobile launcher (ML). Section II contains information on the umbilical equipment. Section III contains information on the servicing equipment, both fixed and mobile. Section IV contains information on the access equipment. Section V contains information on the handling and auxiliary equipment.

  "Saturn V S-IC stage engine gimbal actuation system."

  The actuation system for the Saturn V S-IC stage is described and compared to the Saturn I system. The use of mechanical feedback actuators that result in a significant increase in system reliability and the damping of load resonance is discussed. The unprecedented component sizes and system requirements are cited.
