The US Army Corps of Engineers, Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), Geospatial Research Laboratory (GRL) 7701 Telegraph Road, Alexandria, VA 22315 has a requirement for Optical Tables for Photonics Workshop. REQUIREMENT The Geospatial Research Laboratory (GRL) requires five optical tables. Optical tables are laboratory equipment that are suitable for supporting experiments involving photonics, lasers, and general optical engineering. GRL requires that four of the tables be of size 4.9 by 10 feet by 12 inches and one of the tables be of size 4 by 6 feet by 12 inches. Optical tables are vibrationally dampened and thermally stable. They have flat stainless-steel tops, pre-drilled with industry standard 1/4""-20 (M6) holes spaced on 1-inch intervals. They stand on pneumatically isolated support frames to isolate from vibration. Scientists and engineers use these tables as a base, onto which they place optical and scientific equipment like mounted lenses, mirrors, laser sources, and optical detectors for experiments, testing, and general optical engineering work. These tables will support GRL�s work in basic research, sensor fabrication, equipment calibration, material characterization, and other scientific investigations. GRL requires that the tables and supports be delivered directly to the destination building and moved to the lab room where they will be used. There the tables will be assembled and installed in their final location and configuration, with the tables each standing and attached to the support frame and ready for use.
