Aviation safety which is also related to security is closely dependent on the pavement at the airport, on the runway, taxiway and in the apron area. In 2017 some damage to the pavement of the runway at Halim Perdana Kusuma airport was a concern to national flight safety. To avoid similar incidents, care is needed in pavement designs in critical areas of the airport, including in the aircraft parking area. This study describes an analysis of the pavement layer used in an aircraft parking area. The pavement layer used was analysed for time of construction and in operation. The surface layer was rigid pavement. The parameters used in the analysis are taken from globally accepted requirements for airports. The study was conducted by analyzing the ability of the pavement system to withstand the aircraft load including while maneuvering and stopping. The results of the study will inform efforts to improve the safety of the aviation industry from the aspect of apron design.
