Apparatus and related methods of utilizing a common mounting provision within an armored vehicle. The common mounting provision includes a plurality of common mounting bosses that are arranged in a grid type pattern formed by attaching a plurality of mounting bars to an interior wall of an armored hull with each mounting bar including at least one of the common mounting bosses. The grid type pattern provides for a common spatial distance between adjacent apertures in rows and columns. When engineering changes are needed, the grid type pattern provides the engineer with known mounting bosses having a known spacing allowing the engineer to readily design the component to attach to the common mounting provision. By knowing the size and location of each mounting boss, the engineer will spend less time designing and fitting new components and will avoid having to continually update drawings to illustrate new mounting provisions. |
