Airport Engineering Set 1

An airport has 4 gates. If the weighted average gate occupancy time is 30 minutes and gate utilization factor is 0.5, then the capacity of the gate will be

The bearing of the longest line of a wind rose is S 45

The strength of winds is measured with the help of

The depressions and undulations in the pavement, are caused due to

According to the International Civil Aviation Organization (I.C.A.O.) the strength of runway pavements, have been coded by

According to the International Civil Aviation Organization (I.C.A.O.), the runway lengths of aerodromes, have been coded by

The length of runway under standard conditions is 2000 m. The elevation of airport site is 300 m. Its reference temperature is 33.05°C. If the runway is to be constructed with an effective gradient of 0.25 percent, the corrected runway length will be

The runway length after correcting for elevation and temperature is 2845 m. If the effective gradient on runway is 0.5 percent then the revised runway length will be
