Layered Elastic Pavement Design Version 1.3
(ZIP) |
Layered elastic design software discussed in Chapter 7 of AC 150/5320-6, Airport Pavement Design and Evaluation. Software updated in June 2004 to include new commercial aircraft models and many general aviation aircraft. |
Updated 7/26/2004 |
FAARFIELD 1.302 (3/20/2009) |
FAARFIELD 1.302 replaced the previous version that accompanied Draft AC 150/5320-6E. The FAARFIELD program became the FAA standard for airfield pavement design upon publication of AC 150/5320-6E, which required the use of the FAARFIELD program. | |
COMFAA 2.0 (You will need to scroll down on linked page to view software and related guidance.) |
COMFAA, as introduced in version A of AC 150/5335-5, is capable of calculating Aircraft Classifications Numbers in accordance with the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) procedure. | |
COMFAA 3.0
(Added 9/1/2011) |
COMFAA 3.0, as introduced in version B of
AC 150/5335-5, is the recommended method to determine airport
runway, taxiway, and apron pavement strength with the Aircraft
Classification Number - Pavement Classification Number (ACN-PCN)
method. The software is capable of calculating Aircraft
Classifications Numbers in accordance with the International Civil
Aviation Organization (ICAO) procedure. Support Spreadsheet for COMFAA 3.0 (MS Excel, 1.98 MB)

Asphaltic Concrete - Payment Adjustment for Densities
and Air Voids, Item P-401
(MS Excel) |
The pay equations in this spreadsheet are consistent with the percent within specification limits (PWL) based pay adjusments in Item P-401 as published in versions B and higher of AC 150/5370-10 but are not valid for previous versions of Item P-401. |
Updated 2/4/2008 |
Asphaltic Concrete - Payment Adjustment for Densities
and Air Voids, Item P-401SP (MS Excel) |
This spreadsheet is consistent with Item P-401SP as published in Engineering Brief #59A. |
Updated 3/30/2007 |
PCC Pavement - Payment Factor for Strength and
Thickness, Item P-501 (MS Excel) |
The pay equations in this spreadsheet are valid for
versions of Item P-501 published in versions C and higher of
AC 150/5370-10.
*Update fixes spreadsheet error that occurred when number of lots exceeded 102. |
