MIL-HDBK-741, MILITARY STANDARDIZATION HANDBOOK: FABRIC DESIGN (22 JUL 1974)

MIL-HDBK-741, MILITARY STANDARDIZATION HANDBOOK: FABRIC DESIGN (22 JUL 1974)., This handbook contains in tabular form the solution of the equations for maximum weavability fabrics for the plain, Oxford, 3-and 4-harness twills, and 5-harness sateen for yarn bulk densities equivalent to polyethylene on the low side and to stainless steel on the high side and including all the commercial textile fibers and blends of the most common textile fibers in increments of 5% blend composition. The maximum weavability tables (Table 1-3) in this handbook provide solutions over a warp cover factor range of from 8 to 62 inclusive (on a sliding scale depending upon yarn bulk density), at intervals of 1, and over a Beta factor range of from 0.5 to 2.0 at intervals of 0.1. Where design data are given in terms of yarns per inch and warp of filling yarn number, cover factors and Beta factors may be obtained from tables in Ref 1 or computed from Eqs. 1-4,1-5, or 1-6.
