NASA LaRC Solicitation: Study of Deployable Secondary Structures for Expendable Volumes
“NASA LaRC is seeking an industry partner to study the integration, deployment and packaging of secondary structures within inflation deployed volumes. Secondary structures include any structure that is deployed during or after expansion of the primary volume, such as the floor and work surfaces, but which do not contain pressure loads. … The ultimate goal of this research is to develop a system applicable to future habitation modules deployed on the lunar surface or in space.”
