Measures the resistance of fabrics to wetting by water. It is particularly suitable for measuring the water-repellent efficacy of finishes applied to fabrics because it subjects the treated fabrics to dynamic conditions similar to those often encountered during actual use. This test method is applicable to any textile fabric that may or may not have been given a water-resistant or water-repellent finish.

CCDC Soldier CenterMeasures the resistance of fabrics to wetting by water. It is especially suitable for measuring the water-repellent efficacy of finishes applied to fabrics. It is not intended, however, for use in predicting the probable rain penetration resistance of fabrics, since it does not measure penetration of water through the fabric. It is applicable to any textile fabric which may or may not have been given a water-repellent finish.

CCDC Soldier Center- Assets and facilities are available for testing performance, durability, and reliability of all assault, tactical, and wet-gap bridges and their associated launching systems
- Dry-Gap Testing:
- Two separate dry-gap test sites, allowing for competitive testing
- Prepared abutments consist of level, longitudinal slope, and side slope configurations
- The infrastructure supports a wide variety of performance and reliability testing
- The sites are located near the Munson and Perryman Test Areas, which can be used extensively during system reliability testing - Wet-Gap Testing - Floating bridge systems are tested at wet-gap
test sites, including:
- A sheltered-water river with access to the Chesapeake Bay for floating bridge rafting tests and Bridge Erection Boat testing
- A sheltered-water test site on the Chesapeake Bay for floating bridge launch, retrieval and bridge construction. The site is equipped with offices and storage areas and is located in the vicinity of the Munson Test Area for convenient testing of automotive and other performance parameters
- A still-water inland pond to accommodate floating bridges up to 300 feet long. The site has a variety of bank heights and slopes, and allows for performance and durability crossings of vehicles over floating bridges

Aberdeen Test Center (ATC)Evaluates and analyzes the thermal processes and combustion by-products of fuel-burning equipment, such as field feeding food service burners, tent heaters, water heaters, and other support type equipment, is performed in this laboratory. It contains the following equipment:
- Combustion analysis equipment
- Inline water flow metering equipment
- Dedicated exhaust systems to contain or remove combustion or steam by-products - Provides the capability to evaluate the optical and electro-optical properties of developmental protective eyewear materials over wavelengths ranging from the ultraviolet (UV) to the near infrared (NIR).
