This style of report is most common in research and consulting firms. In your military career you will most likely be asked to evaluate this type of document prepared by external sources. Recent examples of this type of study done at RMC for DND include fatigue studies of aircraft alloys, coking in marine diesel engines and groupings of small weapons fire.
A laboratory report specifies what was sought, how it was sought and why it was sought, preferably not in that order. Such documents are usually prepared using the sections described in Table 3.1.
Due to its length, you will rarely be asked to write up laboratory reports except perhaps in the engineering project course (MEE471). The short laboratory report style outlined in Table 3.2 is preferred so that students can concentrate on developing writing skills in the most important sections.
