In 2014, the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) National Airport Pavement Test Facility (NAPTF) completed construction of its flexible pavement test section, Construction Cycle 7 (CC7). Among the objectives of CC7 was to study the performance of an asphaltic drainable base pavement section compared with a P-209 aggregate base pavement section under full-scale airport loading. This research addresses the pre-traffic material characterization, full-scale traffic test data analysis and post-traffic test data analysis of these two pavement sections in dry conditions. This paper will discuss the preliminary results from laboratory testing and full-scale traffic tests for material properties which may be used in design and construction specifications to improve FAA pavement design software (FAARFIELD).
