MUCH CONCERN HAS BEEN EVIDENCED REGARDING THE ABILITY OF EXISTING PAVEMENTS TO SAFELY AND SATISFACTORILY ACCOMMODATE PRESENT DAY AND PROPOSED AIRCRAFT LOADINGS. IN ANY INVESTIGATION OF PAVEMENT PERFORMANCE, IT IS NOT ONLY NECESSARY TO DETERMINE THE PRESENT CONDITION OF THE PAVEMENT--BY SUCH MEANS AS CONDITION OR PERFORMANCE SURVEYS- -BUT IT IS ALSO NECESSARY TO CONSIDER THE RESULTS OF SUCH SURVEYS IN LIGHT OF THE BASIC DESIGN PRINCIPLES AND CONSTRUCTION PRACTICES WHICH OBTAINED WHEN THE PAVEMENT WAS BUILT. IN ESSENCE, THE EVALUATION IS A REVERSAL OF THE DESIGN PROCEDURE. REPORTED HEREIN IS A GENERAL METHOD OF AIRPORT PAVEMENT EVALUATION PROCEDURE CONSISTENT WITH THE CURRENT DESIGN PRINCIPLES SET FORTH IN CIVIL AERONAUTICS ADMINISTRATION PUBLICATION, AIRPORT PAVING, DATED OCTOBER, 1956. /AUTHOR/
