Cold Rapid Airfield Damage Repair (CRADR)
Abstract
The original project goals for the Cold Rapid Airfield Damage Repair (CRADR) project consisted of characterizing existing solutions in the laboratory at extremely cold temperatures, developing new repair materials, evaluating the performance of cold weather repair equipment, and completing a technology integration experiment in an extreme cold weather environment. Existing solutions were successfully evaluated and documented in the laboratory, new repair materials and methods were developed, and cold weather repair equipment and processes were successfully tested during a technology integration experiment in January 2020. Repairs conducted using new and existing materials all sustained the target number of simulated aircraft passes. The existing goals were fully met. Laboratory characterization was successfully documented, and new repair materials and methods were evaluated during the technology integration experiment along with cold weather equipment.
