The profile roughness over long distances of the airport runway and taxiway pavement may lead to aircraft fatigue damage, reduced operational safety, and passenger discomfort. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has provided guidelines and procedures for measuring airfield pavement roughness in the Advisory Circulars FAA AC 150/5380-9 and has developed the computer program ProFAA for computing longitudinal pavement profile roughness indexes. In recent years, the FAA has collected many longitudinal and transverse profiles at domestic airports. To process the profile data in a more accurate and effective way, an algorithm of a beam bridging filter has been created to reduce the influence of short dips in the pavement surface. This approach can adjust the effect of a tire’s contact with the road surface by modeling the contact area as a beam element with a series of compressive springs. The application of the beam bridging filter is demonstrated by its incorporation into the computer program ProFAA for processing the data of longitudinal profiles of airport runways.
