Items covered include earthwork, drainage, paving, turfing, lighting, and incidental construction.
The standards contained in this AC relate to materials and methods used in the construction of airports. The density acceptance criteria for Item P-401 has been revised to reflect a new lower specification limit and use of the standard deviation to compute acceptance parameters. The standards contained herein are recommended by the Federal Aviation Administration for use in the construction of airports. For federally funded projects, the standards are mandatory. Since it is not feasible to provide construction specifications that can be applied to all geographical areas of the United States, its territories and possessions, the guide specifications in this AC should be used in developing project specifications.
