Thickness Analysis of Runway Pavement Construction at Zainuddin Abdul Madjid Airport to Accommodate Boeing 777-300ER

Abstract

Lombok Island is one of destinations for travel from various regions due to construction of a racing circuit on the island. Large events such as MotoGP, GT World Challenge Asia, World Superbike,and others will often be held, so that it will increase tourists to visit Lombok Island. With this increase, it is necessary to develop facilities of Zainuddin Abdul Madjid Airport. One of them is runway pavement must have a thick layer that is able to accommodate aircraft movement activities. Zainuddin Abdul Madjid Airport is planned to be able to facilitate larger planned aircraft, that is B777-300ER. The increase in facilities needed is the extension of the runway with pavement structure which needs to be adjusted to the aircraft load that will be received by the pavement. Based on this, the runway pavement construction structure at Zainuddin Abdul Madjid Airport will be designed using FAA method with FAARFIELD software and PCN value was calculated using the COMFAA software. The data needed are annual departure, subgrade CBR,and type of pavement layer used. From the calculation results, the pavement thickness for the runway extension is Surface P-401/P-403 thickness is 100 mm thick, P-401/P-403 Stabilized thickness is 127 mm thick, and Crushed Aggregate P-209 thickness is 296mm. The PCN value for runway extension is 71/F/A/X/T.
