	Funding: This work was supported in part by the U.S. Department of Energy under Grant DE-FG02-06ER41405 A design is being developed to prototype for a dipole for this purpose: a block-coil dipole with 13 T short- sample field, 11 T working field, and 6 cm aperture. The dipole is a natural application of the high-field dipole strategy developed at Texas A&M, using simple pancake windings, flux-plate suppression of low-field multipoles, and bladder preloading. A short model dipole is planned.

TUP178	Current Progress of TAMU3: A Block Coil Stress-managed High Field (>12T) Nb3Sn Dipole	1163

	Funding: This work was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy under Grant DE-FG02-06ER41405 TAMU3 is a block-coil short model dipole which embodies for the first time at high field (>12T) strength the techniques of stress management within the superconducting windings. The dipole consists of two planar racetrack coil assemblies, assembled within the rectangular aperture of a flux return core. Each assembly contains an inner and outer winding, and a high-strength support structure which is integrated within the assembly to intercept the Lorentz stress produced from the inner winding so that it does not accumulate to produce high stress in the outer winding. Iso-static preload is applied by pressurizing a set of thin stainless steel bladders with molten Woods metal and then freezing the metal under pressure. Current technology, difficulties, and present status of construction of magnet assembly will be presented.
