Abstract
Liquid rocket propulsion test facility should provide for the interface condition installed on the upper level system for the test article. In addition, safety provision should be provided to be ready for accident such as explosion which can be occurred during development stage. For this purpose infra-structures of test facilities must be constructed so that stable combustion test can be performed and be guard against accidents. In this article, various aspects for infrastructures of propulsion test facilities are investigated including architecture and civil engineering aspects, test stand, room arrangements, interfaces among facilities, fire-fighting facilities, electrical power facilities.
