ICR believes that the strata, the layers of rock in the Grand Canyon, were primarily formed during Noahâs flood perhaps only five thousand years ago. Most geologists, including Christian old-earth creationists, believe that the strata were laid down over hundreds of millions of years. What better way, then, to equip myself for the study of the earthâs age, than to spend nine days around the Grand Canyon (six of them in it) with ICR geologists, physicists, and biologists.
The gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the M998 HMMWV is 7,700lb with a curb weight of 5,200lb. At maximum payload of 2,500lb the vehicle can reach a maximum speed of 65mph. It has seating options of 1+1 or 2+2 based on the configuration. It uses a 12V/24V electrical system and has a fuel tank with a capacity of 95l.
Important Note: For truck-mounted TMAs, such as the Safe Stop 180, manufactured by Energy Absorptions Systems, Inc., the minimum Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) of the protective (host) vehicle is 16,090 pounds to a maximum of 60,000 pounds.This weight includes the truck, the TMA, and any additional ballasts.ruck-mounted attenuators are designed to safely absorb the energy of an errant vehicle that crashes into it. Your job is to make sure that you are in the proper location to protect the crew, to provide ample roll-ahead distance, and to provide adequate warning to your co-workers and traveling public, when possible.
