The U.S. Navy is tasked to perform a baseline accommodation assessment of in-service Navy and Marine. The requirement to advance the technical processes used in defining the interior confines of crew stations for the purpose of assessing accommodation issues is included in the program task. A new methodology has been developed by the U.S. Navy that utilizes advanced data collection technology and data analysis techniques. This set of procedures is called the Navy Advanced Crew Station Evaluation Technique (NACSET) which can be applied to any crew or work station. The evaluation investigates accommodation issues such as head, leg, and knee clearance, eye position, and reach ability. The analysis produces accommodation prediction equations for each issue under investigation. The prediction equations arc used to develop three products: Percent Accommodated, the Individual Screening Process, and Anthropometric Restriction Codes for the USN and USMC. NACSET provides methods for not only evaluating current crew stations, but also crew stations currently under design. NACSET methods are also easily adaptable to fit a program's specific needs.
