Investigation of Sensor/Measurement Systems for Army Installation Quality Assurance Applications
2006
Johnson, James H. | Poskin, Marc J.
As the U.S. Army downsizes and many experienced personnel leave the service, installation Directorates of Engineering and Housing (DEHs) must necessarily fulfill their mission with lower operating budgets and less experienced technical personnel. A key DEH function significantly affected by this trend is the quality assurance (QA) program. Historically, key QA inspections have been performed through the eyes and ears of highly experienced personnel. Although such procedures by experienced personnel are time-tested and effective, changing conditions require the upgrading of inspection methods. Today's inspectors must make quantifiable, reproducible QA judgments at the lowest possible cost. To successfully accomplish this, they need aids that can reliably measure and document the parameters being inspected. One way to successfully meet the rigorous demands posed by the realities of the modem Army and changing technology is through new QA applications of sensor/measurement (S/ M) systems. This report describes 15 commercially available S/M systems with potentially valuable applications in Army QA activities, and reports the results of field evaluation by several installation DEHs and Corps of Engineers laboratories. Most of the systems tested were found by the evaluators to be fully applicable to appropriate QA activities with few or no reservations.
