The bridge has a load rating of class MLC 80 (military load classification) for tracked vehicles and class MLC 96 for wheeled vehicles. The DSB’s maximum load rating for wheeled vehicles is MLC 120. It can operate in temperatures ranging from -46°C to 49°C.

The Dry Support Bridge (DSB) relies on a mechanical system to significantly reduce soldier effort and improve operational capability to the force. The DSB replaces the medium girder bridge (MGB), while doubling the gap-crossing capability of each MRBC.

For normal crossings, the maximum bending moment and shear force was scaled up by an impact factor of 1.15 (bending moment)/ 1.2 (shear force), as published in the Trilateral Design and Test Code for Military Bridging and Gap Crossing Equipment (TDTC), and an eccentricity factor.

the DSB will improve current bridge load-carrying capacity, moving it up to military load classification (MLC) 96 for wheeled traffic, such as an M1 tank uploaded on a heavy equipment transporter. The DSB is designed for transportation as a palletized load by the CBT, palletized load system 352 ARMY October 2010 Joint high speed vessel (JHSV)

The DSB Bridging System consists of four primary elements: (1) the bridge, (2) the launching system, (3) the launch vehicle chassis and (4) the vehicles used to transport the bridge elements.

Section I. OVERVIEW OF DSB SYSTEM 1.1 INTRODUCTION This manual describes the components, the operations and operational sequences required to load, transport, deploy and recover the 131.23 ft (40 m) dry support bridge. It also includes field repairs, field maintenance procedures and trouble shooting sections. 1.1.1 Scope

2012年11月13日 · The M18 Dry Support Bridge (DSB) System is a complete dry gap bridging system, consisting of the M1975 DSB<br /> Launcher Vehicle and the M19 DSB. DSB system is a highly mobile, truck-mounted, rapidly emplaced modular bridging<br />

The Dry Support Bridge (DSB) is a mobile, rapidly erected, modular military bridge system. DSB is fielded to Multi-Role Bridge Companies (MRBCs) and requires a crew of eight Soldiers to deploy a 40-meter bridge in fewer than 90 minutes (daytime). DSB sections have a 4.3-meter road width and can span a 40-meter gap
