Carnegie Mellon Rocket Command Budget
FY2015 (July 1, 2014 - June 30, 2015)
Our goal is to introduce students to model rocketry through information, movies, and building and launching rockets individually, as competing teams, and as a club.

The Physics Department funds pizza at one meeting per month. |
| Ops-General Supplies (+) | $150.00 | $150.00 | $150.00 |
Kits will be constructed by members at club meetigns and flown at club launches. A subsidy removes the financial burden of participation and promotes involvement in the club. A better teaching program allows us to graduate members to custom construction more quickly than previous years. |

Tools
| Object Code | Requested | Recommended | Final | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Equip-Non-Capital Equipment (+) | $40.00 | $40.00 | $40.00 |
Building Supplies: Sandpaper, glue, and tape are used in the construction process. |
| Equip-Non-Capital Equipment (+) | $30.00 | $30.00 | $30.00 |
Paint: This gives the rockets a finished experience and increases their durability. |
| Equip-Non-Capital Equipment (+) | $80.00 | $80.00 | $80.00 |
Tools: This will provide for items such as hobby knives, saw blades and scissors used in the construction process. These purchases will allow greater availability of construction tools to all members, improving and accelerating the construction process. |
| Sub-Total | $150.00 | $150.00 | $150.00 |
Custom Construction
| Object Code | Requested | Recommended | Final | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ops-Event Supplies (+) | $110.00 | $110.00 | $110.00 |
Disposable Rocket motors for our launches: these are expendable. Motors will be used to power the aforementioned kits. It is difficult to specify ahead of time which motors will be used, as this depends upon which models members choose to construct. |
| Ops-Event Supplies (+) | $20.00 | $20.00 | $20.00 |
Reloadable Rocket motors for our launches: Some members have expressed interest in mixing their own propellant and reloading motors. This will allow us to purchase chemicals to mix propellant for them. Reloadable rocket motors are not cost effective in small launches. |
| Equip-Non-Capital Equipment (+) | $20.00 | $20.00 | $20.00 |
Nose cones: These form the aerodynamic top of the rocket. |
| Equip-Non-Capital Equipment (+) | $20.00 | $20.00 | $20.00 |
Body tubes: these form the main body of the rocket, to which everything else is attached. |
| Equip-Non-Capital Equipment (+) | $15.00 | $15.00 | $15.00 |
Centering rings: these hold the motor mount in place. |
| Equip-Non-Capital Equipment (+) | $10.00 | $10.00 | $10.00 |
Motor mount system: contains the motor inside the rocket. Tremendous force is generated here, so these must be very durable. |
| Equip-Non-Capital Equipment (+) | $20.00 | $20.00 | $20.00 |
Recovery systems: This will fund a parachute, used to safely recover a model as it descends from apogee. |
| Equip-Non-Capital Equipment (+) | $5.00 | $5.00 | $5.00 |
Launch lugs: these ensure rocket stability before launch and during liftoff. |
| Equip-Non-Capital Equipment (+) | $290.00 | $290.00 | $290.00 |
Composite Rocket: Composite rockets are built as a single unit so it is difficult to differentiate between the different components of the rocket. This is higher than last year due to the cost of composite materials being higher than expected. |
| Sub-Total | $510.00 | $510.00 | $510.00 |
