Abstract

The design and upkeep of airport pavements are essential for guaranteeing safe and efficient air travel. This study assesses the overlay thickness specifications for the Fatmawati Soekarno Airport runway utilizing FAARFIELD 2.1, a pavement design software created by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The evaluation relies on primary and secondary data, encompassing Pavement Condition Index (PCI) analysis, Dynamic Cone Penetration (DCP) tests, and estimates of aircraft traffic. The FAARFIELD methodology uses layered elastic and finite element analysis to simulate pavement performance under escalating load requirements. The findings demonstrate that for STA 0+000 to 1+800, with a subgrade bearing capacity (CBR) of 6%, the necessary overlay thickness is 51mm (5cm) of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA). Likewise, for STA 1+800 to 2+250, with a subgrade CBR of 10%, the overlay thickness is maintained at 51mm (5cm). The design considers anticipated aircraft traffic expansion over 20 years while retaining the pavement's structural integrity. This study demonstrates the efficacy of FAARFIELD in enhancing overlay designs for airport pavements, hence improving maintenance strategies for aviation infrastructure.

Abstract

Batam City with existing drainage issues is a major hindrance to its performance. Road construction is always related to drainage funcitionality. The existing condition, with heavily piled-up sediments, causes a significant issue for Batam, Nagoya, and Batam Kota sub–district. Sediment accumulation in the drainage base depth causes a reduction in drainage volume, resulting in backflow and disturbance of water flow dynamics. This slowly erupts to the surface and cause flooding in roadways. Flooding roadways cause traffic congestion, erosion of the road structure, and accumulation of sediments due to the intensity of rainfall. Which resulting damages to drainage system. By installing sediment traps on manholes and lower base drainage, it can help reduce the buildup of sediments on the drainage base. Which will reduce flood risk and allow water to flow smoothly without resulting in backflow.

Abstract

This study utilizes FAARFIELD software to calculate the necessary overlay thickness for the runway pavement at Hang Nadim International Airport. The evaluation relies on primary data, including field assessments such as Pavement Condition Index (PCI) analysis and Dynamic Cone Penetration (DCP) testing, to estimate subgrade bearing capacity. Secondary data is sourced from the Airport Pavement Management System (APMS), which provides historical pavement conditions, maintenance records, and aircraft traffic statistics. The results show that for the runway section from STA 0+000 to 4+025, with a subgrade CBR of 8%, the required overlay thickness is 55 mm (5.5 cm) of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA). These findings incorporate projections of aircraft traffic growth over 20 years, ensuring the pavement's structural integrity despite increasing loads. The study also emphasizes the need for future research to refine methodologies for determining subgrade bearing capacity. While historical CBR data is available, updating field data will offer a more accurate reflection of current subgrade conditions. Moreover, DCP testing on the runway side may not accurately reflect conditions at the runway center, suggesting the use of core drilling to verify subgrade conditions at critical points. Core drilling can provide more precise depth measurements for reconstruction based on observed damage.
