Development of Acceptance Plans for Airport Pavement Materials. Volume 1. Development
Abstract
The objective of this research is to develop statistically based acceptance/rejection plans and payment adjustment schedules for five specifications covered under the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Advisory Circular (AC) No. 150/5370/10, Standards for Specifying the Construction of Airports, namely: Excavation and Embankment, Crushed Aggregate Base Course, Cement Treated Base Course, Econocrete Subbase Course, and Portland Cement Concrete Pavement. Previously, the Pennsylvania State University developed plans for Specification P-401, Plant Mix Bituminous Pavements, which were adopted for use in 1984. This report includes the statistical analysis of data, development of payment adjustment plans (PAP), and development of PAP computer diskette system. Test data used for this effort were collected from field sources. The developed PAP formulas, schedules, and computer diskette system were verified using new pavement construction projects. This report is divided into two volumes with Volume I, Development, describing the development of PAP, and Volume II, Computer Operator's Manual, describing the operation details of the PAP diskette system.
