About the Project
In 2023, The Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT) Aviation Planning Section selected APTech to update their statewide airport pavement management system (APMS) for twenty-two of the airports in their system. This project builds on APTech’s successful Nevada APMS update in 2018.
As part of this project, APTech will:
Update all pavement inventory, work history, and mapping from the previous APMS update
Complete condition inspections of each airport to collect pavement condition index (PCI) data
Perform maintenance and rehabilitation (M&R) analysis
Develop a multi-year capital improvement plan (CIP) for pavement needs at each airport
Document results in an individual airport executive summary for each airport, a statewide executive summary report, and delivery of the interactive APMS visualization tool, IDEA
Determine Pavement Classification Ratings (PCRs) for the runways at the project airports as a measure of relative pavement strength and develop aircraft traffic forecasts for each airport
Throughout this project, APTech will aid NDOT and airport sponsors in efficiently prioritizing pavement improvements, making the best use of available funding. This project will also assist each airport that is part of the NPIAS in fulfilling a majority of the requirements of FAA Grant Assurance 11 regarding the implementation of an effective pavement management system.
