AIRPLANE CHARACTERISTICS
4-1 GENERAL INFORMATION This section provides airplane turning capability and maneuvering characteristics. For ease of presentation, this data has been determined from the theoretical limits imposed by the geometry of the aircraft, and where noted, provides for a normal allowance for tire slippage. As such, it reflects the turning capability of the aircraft in favorable operating circumstances. This data should only be used as guidelines for the method of determination of such parameters and for the maneuvering characteristics of this aircraft type. In the ground operating mode, varying airline practices may demand that more conservative turning procedures be adopted to avoid excessive tire wear and reduce possible maintenance problems. Airline operating techniques will vary in the level of performance, over a wide range of operating circumstances throughout the world. Variations from standard aircraft operating patterns may be necessary to satisfy physical constraints within the maneuvering area, such as adverse grades, limited area or high risk of jet blast damage. For these reasons, ground maneuvering requirements should be coordinated with the using airlines prior to layout planning.

7-1 GENERAL INFORMATION The brief description of the pavement charts that follow will help in their use for airport planning. Each airplane configuration is depicted with a minimum range of five loads imposed on the main landing gear to aid in interpolation between the discrete values shown. All curves for any single chart represent data at a constant specified tire pressure, with the airplane loaded to the maximum ramp weight and the CG at its maximum permissible aft position. Pavement requirements for commercial airplanes are derived from the static analysis of loads imposed on the main landing gear struts. Section 7-2, page 1 to 3, presents basic data on the landing gear footprint configuration, maximum ramp weights and tire sizes and pressures. Section 7-3, page 1 to 3, shows maximum vertical and horizontal pavement loads for certain critical conditions at the tire-ground interfaces. The charts, section 7-4-1 page 1 to 3, are provided in order to determine these loads throughout the stability limits of the airplane at rest on the pavement. These main landing gear loads are used as the point of entry to the pavement design charts which follow, interpolating load values where necessary. The flexible pavement design curves in Section 7-5-1 page 1 to 2, are based on procedures set forth in Instruction Report N S-77-1, Procedures for Development of CBR Design Curves, dated June 1977. The report was prepared by the U.S Army Corps Engineers Waterways Experiment Station, Soils and Pavement Laboratory, Vicksburg, Mississippi. The line showing 10,000 coverages is used to calculate Aircraft Classification Number (ACN).

The following procedure is used to develop flexible pavement design curves such as that shown in Section 7-5-1 page 1 to 2. 1 Having established the scale for pavement thickness at the bottom and the scale for CBR at the top, an arbitrary line is drawn representing 10,000 coverages. Incremental values of the weight on the main landing gear are then plotted. Annual departure lines are then drawn based on the load lines of the weight on the main landing gear that is shown on the graphs.

The rigid pavement design curves in Section 7-7 have been prepared with the use of the Westergaard Equation in general accordance with the procedures outlined in the Portland Cement Association publications, Design of Concrete Airport Pavement, 1973 and Computer Program for Airport Pavement Design, (Program PDILB), 1967 both by Robert G. Packard. The following procedure is used to develop rigid pavement design curves shown in Section 7-7 page 2 and 3. 1 Having established the scale for pavement thickness to the left and the scale for allowable working stress to the right, an arbitrary load line is drawn representing the main landing gear maximum weight to be shown. All values of the subgrade modulus (k values) are then plotted Additional load lines for the incremental values of weight on the main landing gear are drawn on the basis of the curve for k = 300 already shown on the graphs.

All Load Classification Number (LCN) curves shown in Section 7-6 and Section 7-8 have been developed from a computer program based on data provided in Internation Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) document 7920-AN/865/2, Aerodrome Manual, Part 2, Aerodrome Physical Characteristics, Second Edition, 1965. On the same flexible pavement chart, section 7-6-1 page 1 to 2, showing LCN versus equivalent single wheel load, there are load plots showing equivalent single wheel load versus pavement thickness. Similarly on the same rigid pavement chart, section 7-8-2 page 1 to 2, showing LCN versus equivalent single wheel load, there are load plots showing equivalent single wheel load versus radius of relative stiffness.

Section 7-9 provides ACN data prepared according to the ACN/PCN system as referenced in ICAO Annex 14, Aerodromes, Volume 1 Third Edition July 1999, incorporating Amendments 1 to 3. The ACN/PCN system provides a standardized international airplane/pavement rating system replacing the various S, T, TT, LCN, AUW, ISWL, etc., rating systems used throughout the world. ACN is the Aircraft Classification Number and PCN is the corresponding Pavement Classification Number. An aircraft having an ACN equal to or less than the PCN can operate without restriction on the pavement. Numerically the ACN is two times the derived single wheel load (expressed in thousands of kilograms) where the derived single wheel load is defined as the load on a single tire inflated to 1.25MPa (181 psi) that would have the same pavement requirements as the aircraft. Computationally, the ACN/PCN system uses PCA program PDILB for rigid pavement and S-77-1 for flexible pavements to calculate ACN values. The method of pavement evaluation is left up to the airport with the results of their evaluation presented as follows : PCN PAVEMENT TYPE R-Rigid F-Flexible SUBGRADE CATEGORY A-High B-Medium C-Low D-Ultra Low TIRE-PRESSURE CATEGORY W-No X-To Y-To Z-To Limit 1.50 Mpa (217 psi) 1.00 Mpa (145 psi) 0.50 Mpa ( 73 psi) EVALUATION METHOD T-Technical U-Using aircraft

Section 7-9-1 Page 1 to 6 shows the aircraft ACN values for flexible pavements. The four subgrade categories are : A High Strength CBR 15 B Medium Strength CBR 10 C Low Stength CBR 6 D Ultra Low Strength CBR 3 Section 7-9-2 Page 1 to 6 shows the The four subgrade categories are : A Hight Strength Subgrade k B Medium Strength Subgrade k C Low Stength Subgrade k D Ultra Low Strenght Subgrade k aircraft ACN for rigid pavements. = 150 MN/m3 = 80 MN/m3 = 40 NM/m3 = 20 MN/m3 (550 (300 (150 ( 75 pci) pci) pci) pci)

7-8-3 RADIUS OF RELATIVE STIFFNESS (Other values of E and L) The chart of section 7-8-1 presents "L" values based on Young's Modulus (E) of 4,000,000 psi and Poisson's Ratio () of 0.15. For convenience in finding "L" values based on other values of E and , the curves of section 7-8-4 are included. For example, to find an "L" value based on an E of 3,000,000 psi, the "E" factor of 0.931 is multiplied by the "L" value found in table of section 7-8-1. The effect of variations of on the "L" value is treated in a similar manner.
