The TPX configuration has progressed since the March, 1993 Conceptual Design Review (CDR). Changes have been made to enhance operating performance and improve engineering design margins. Clearances have been added to subsystem envelopes to increase fabrication space and expand assembly tolerances; design modifications have been adopted to meet changes in physics requirements and to enhance maintenance features. Configuration details of magnet leads and services have been added and major subsystem clearance requirements for assembly/disassembly have been revisited.
