Airfield Pavement Condition Survey, USNAS MIRAMAR, California

Abstract

The results of a condition survey and friction measurements on the runways at the U.S. Naval Air Station, Miramar, California are presented. The survey established statistically-based condition numbers (weighted defect densities) which were direct indicators of the condition of the individual pavement facilities. The runway friction measurements showed the aircraft hydroplaning/skidding potential of the field. The results of the condition survey show an increasing amount of joint seal defects. Continuing repairs have effected a decrease in the number of spalls. Runway friction measurements show that all runways have satisfactory frictional resistance.
