The Improvement Of The Pavement Classification Number (Pcn) On Taxiway Alpha In International Airport Of Supadio Pontianak West Kalimantan
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Mechanical and Civil Engineering (IOSR-JMCE) - Year 2018, Vol 15, Issue 4
Abstract
Supadio Pontianak Airport with total traffic in 2016 reaches ± 90 movement per day, but service less than optimal because the strength of pavement on Taxiway Alpha only have PCN 40 FDXT, while for taxiway Bravo with PCN 51 FDXT. The size of the PCN Strength of pavement on the Alpha taxiway is considered less able to support large-bodied aircraft types such as the B737-800 and A320-200 types as it has a MTOW 78.240 kg and 73,500 kg. The aims of this research is to improve the Pavement Classification Number (PCN) on Taxi way Alfa to be able to serve the aircraft type B-737 series 800 and Airbus 320 series 200. The research method is descriptive qualitative and quantitative based on pavement calculation graph of pavement thickness according to maximum take off weight (MTOW) against the currently operated aircraft. Increased PCN taxiway Alfa to serve B-737 series 800 and A-320 series 200 can be done through reconstruction of pavement with thick sub base: 52 cm, base 32 cm and surface 10 cm.
