Transtec developed a testing and evaluation plan that included a pavement condition survey by RS&H, as well as geotechnical testing and non-destructive deflection testing provided by other firms.

CLIENT: RS&H

Transtec reviewed the data collected and performed engineering calculations to determine the feasibility of using the existing ramp to support loading from Boeing 747-8 aircraft. The results of this pavement analysis were submitted to the DFW Airport to assist in their evaluation of the feasibility of the proposed project.  Primarily, the findings were used to determine whether the existing pavement is suitable to support the anticipated aircraft operations on the ramp.
