Sustainable Airport Pavement Management

As global air traffic surpasses pre-pandemic benchmarks, the demand for resilient, sustainable airport infrastructure has never been greater. This forum, organized by Changi Airports International (CAI) and Pavement Engineering Society (Singapore) (PES), supported by Changi Airport Group (CAG) and Centre for Transportation Research, National University of Singapore (CTR), facilitates the exchange of technical expertise and best practices to optimize pavement performance, ensuring operational safety and long-term economic sustainability in aviation.

Key Topics

Exploring the intersection of durability and ecology.

Airport pavement management, maintenance & rehabilitation

Strategic oversight and restoration techniques to ensure long-term airfield pavement integrity.

Pavement planning, upgrading & capacity evaluation

Assessment of infrastructure expansion and structural capabilities for future aviation growth.

Structural & functional design, construction & performance

Engineering robust airfield layers focusing on load-bearing capacity and operational longevity.

Pavement materials, testing & distress evaluation

Analyzing physical properties and surface defects to ensure high-quality material standards.

Pavement condition surveys & performance prediction

Systematic data collection to forecast future degradation and prioritize necessary interventions.

Drainage management for airport pavements

Designing efficient water removal systems to protect structural stability and safety.

Airfield operational safety

Mitigating hazards through rigorous maintenance to ensure secure aircraft ground movements.

Life-cycle cost analysis

Evaluating long-term financial commitments from initial construction through future maintenance cycles.

Operational, environmental & economic sustainability strategies

Integrating green practices and cost-efficient methods for resilient airport infrastructure management.
