bitumen for airport runways operates under far more severe conditions than road asphalt. Aircraft loads exceed highway traffic loads by several multiples, and braking forces concentrate stress in limited surface areas. Airport runway bitumen must handle: Extremely high wheel loads Slow moving and static aircraft pressure Intense shear forces during landing and takeoff Continuous exposure […]
