Base Course Drainage for Airport Pavements
Base courses beneath airport pavements may become saturated under some conditions. The principal causes for base saturation were determined from observations on a number of airfields. An approximate theoretical analysis for the drainage of a saturated base course was developed and compared with the results of laboratory model tests and full-scale field tests. These comparisons show that the formulas which are proposed are satisfactory for the design of base drainage of wide pavements.
