PRELIMINARY RESEARCH WORK AND QUALITY CONTROL ON THE ZAGREB AIRPORT RECONSTRUCTION

PRETHODNI ISTRAZNI RADOVI I KONTROLA KVALITETE IZVEDBE RADOVA NA REKONSTRUKCIJI AERODROMA ZAGREB

The reconstruction and extension of the Zagreb airport runway has been worked out according to the technical documentation prepared by the Zagreb airport engineering experts in cooperation with the Civil Engineering Institute of Croatia. By the 390 M concrete pavement runway extension and the reconstruction of the existing part of the runway, the Zagreb airport has been qualified to accept the largest intercontinental planes which are in service today. The largest part of the construction work was the building of the asphalt and concrete pavement. The new asphalt pavement consists of the 12-18 cm base course, 5 cm binder course and 4 cm wearing course. The reconstruction of part of the runway has been undertaken by using a 28 cm concrete course on top of an asphalt levelling course and the extension of the runway consists of the 33 cm concrete layer placed on the gravel protection layer. Quality control and laboratory examinations have shown that all the asphalt and concrete work was done in accordance with the technical terms and standards. /TRRL/
