Vehicle suspension testing system

ACS designed and built two additions to expand research and testing capabilities for heavy duty truck suspension systems. One addition contained three drive through truck bays with a bridge crane and bedplate to allow for full vehicle testing and measurement. The second addition housed a full suspension testing rig, space for a future rig and the associated facility systems.

Key Performance Features:

  • A 26’ x 32’ vibration isolated bedplate
  • A structurally isolated addition to eliminate vibration transfer to existing facilities
  • New 34 kV electrical service
  • Under floor utility distribution

ACS Services:

ACS held a single-source contract for design and construction management; equipment specification, procurement and installation; integration of equipment and facility systems; and commissioning.
