The United States Air Force (USAF) operates over 100 airfields throughout the United States under different commands with different military missions. The majority of these airfields were originally constructed during World War II of rigid (concrete) pavement, and in some cases, the 1940s era pavement is still in operation. Although many of the original concrete pavements have been reconstructed in the past 20 to 40 years, the majority have exceeded their expected design life. The intent of this paper is to study the evolution of concrete airfield pavements and see if the resulting performance is affected by changes in design approaches, climatic region of each airfield, and causes of common distress types.
