This requirement is a 100% set-aside as small business.BackgroundThe National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Engineering Laboratory (EL) Materials and Structural Systems Division (MSSD) studies the durability and service life of infrastructure materials (polymer, concrete, engineered composites) for resilience infrastructure applications. Resilience refers to the ability of a material or system to resist and recover from damage or stress. In the context of infrastructure materials, such as those used in buildings, bridges, and roads, resilience is an important property that ensures that these structures can withstand the demands of their intended use and continue to function in the face of changing environmental and operational conditions.NIST requires an anti-vibration workstation and enclosure that meets or exceeds the following minimum specifications:See the attached specification sheet.
