The Improvement Of The Pavement Classification Number (Pen) On Taxiway Alpha In International Airport Of Supadio Pontianak West Kalimantan

摘要

Supadio Pontianak Airport with total traffic in 2016 reaches ± 90 movement per day,but service less than optimal because the strength o f pavement on Taxiway Alpha only have PCN 40 FDXT,while for taxiway Bravo with PCN 51 FDXT.The size o f the PCN Strength o f pavement on the Alpha taxhvay is considered less able to support large-bodied aircraft types such as the B737-800 and A320-200 types as it has a MTOW 78.240 kg and 73,500 kg.The aims o f this research is to improve the Pavement Classification Number (PCN) on Taxi way Alfa to be able to serve the aircraft type B-737 series 800 and Airbus 320 series 200.The research method is descriptive qualitative and quantitative based on pavement calculation graph o f pavement thickness according to maximum take off weight (MTOW) against the currently operated aircraft.Increased PCN taxiway Alfa to serve B-737 series 800 and A-320 series 200 can be done through reconstruction o f pavement with thick sub base.
