Pavement Maintenance Guidelines for General Aviation Airport Management

This report provides guidance to general aviation airport managers in determining the most cost-efficient and appropriate preventative maintenance solution to common pavement issues. Research was conducted on the different types of pavement distresses that occur at airports and the types of preventative pavement practices typically used. The guidance includes the effect the climate has on pavement maintenance options and illustrates the range of costs that are expected for each type of preventative maintenance option. In addition to the guidebook, two additional products were developed. The Airport Pavement Maintenance Recommendation Tool (available at http://acrppavement-tool.tti.tamu.edu) is an interactive tool that will assist the user in identifying pavement issues and will make appropriate recommendations. The Field Guide for the Airport Pavement Maintenance Recommendation Tool is intended to assist in identifying the specific pavement issues while in the field.
