Rocket Stands in Use
Load Simulation for Redundancy
Sim ran for prototype and not final model, saved for use since similar design and load bearing conditions
Horizontal Rocket Stands
Identified flaws in old rocket stands; saw a lack of modularity and designed a solution that allows new stands to fit any diameter rocket (size within reason), added preset fixtures for common diameter sizes, and finally one-axis rotation to grant easy access to all points of the rocket
