abh provides support services to manufacturers of equipment to high shock and vibration standards for naval vessels according to specifications of the German, Nato, and U.S. navies (BV, STANAG, and MIL specs) as well as to shipyards which install such equipment.
abh performed such tasks on frigates, mine hunters, and submarines for Argentina, Australia, Germany, Greece, Israel, Portugal, Spain, and Turkey. All calculations are executed with software approved by the German defence forces procurement department (BWB). abh 's organisation structure and facilities comply with naval security requirements.
abh 's services to manufacturers and shipyards regarding equipment/systems with high shock/vibration requirements for naval vessels include: - general consulting on all aspects of shock and vibration resistance, including the selection of existing components and equipment which meet a client's shock/vibration requirements - interpretation of naval shock and vibration requirements, definition of equipment specifications and deliverable documents for approval by the navy, as design guidance as well as for the preparation of tenders to suppliers or of quotations to the shipyard or the purchasing navy department - project co-ordination for shock/vibration between design, manufacturing and quality assurance across the interfaces between the designer, the manufacturer, the shipyard and the approval authority - matching of the shock and vibration characteristics of equipment and its foundation, from strategy through calculation and design
to final
shock/vibration test, including certification of calculatory compliance
as required for the Final Acceptance Test (FAT)
- static and dynamic calculations of the shock and vibration resistance of component parts, sub-assemblies and complete systems
- design specification for shock dampers of single and double elastic mountings
- definition of the optimal method and documentation for proving a
component's or equipment's shock resistance, preparation of shock- and
vibration tests, and support during the execution of the tests
- elaboration and maintenance of the shock status of an equipment or shipboard sub-system
abh
's modular data bank SHOCK SUPPORT is an innovation designed to ensure
that the shock documentation status regarding naval requirements of
equipment and components is current and valid. The data bank's
modularity enables abh to keep the client's proprietary data
current for as long as and to the level of detail which the client
requires.
SHOCK SUPPORT is directly accessible to clients for 24 hours
per day for detailed engineering data and other relevant information.
Accessibility, scope and ease of query of this data bank enable
 clients
to avoid duplication of shock documentation, ensure continuity in the
interpretation of and response to changing shock/vibration requirements
and significantly facilitate configuration control. These features of abh
's SHOCK SUPPORT help to prevent project delays, facilitate
communications between project partners, from prime contractor through
sub-contractors to the approval authority, and minimise costs of
administration, engineering, production, testing and documentation of
final approval.

Expertise in naval systems enables abh
to consult commercial shipbuilders in vibration analyses of major
components - such as foundations - and non-shipbuilding clients, for
example in the analysis of the earth quake resistance of buildings.
