ABSTRACT
The territory of the airport is located on the watershed of the two big rivers. At this object, loess soils have a predominantly solid and semi-solid consistency with small surface layers of refractory consistency to a great depth.
To ensure the stability of the embankment, the upper soil layers with minimal bearing capacity must be withdrawn at a depth up to 1.5 m. To ensure waterproofing and achieve the design value of the coefficient of subgrade reaction on the surface in 74 MN/m3 under the designed airfield pavement is arranged a layer of stabilized soil and an additional layer of bentonite mats. To separate the concrete layers, use non-woven polypropylene thermally reinforced geotextile.
The paper presents the results of calculations of the design of the aerodrome pavement by the finite element method. It provides a rational decision for the design and comparative analysis with other structures.
