This project consists of providing professional engineering services to expand the aircraft parking aprons north of the existing apron due to the rapid growth of the airport. It required three additional aircraft parking spaces for the Airbus A319/A320/A321 and 737-800 aircraft. Originally designed with a blast fence for power in- power out operations, only two positions were obtainable so the airport directed ICE to revise for straight in operation with tug push back. The apron consists of a combination of asphalt and concrete in varying thicknesses for taxiway (4” asphalt/ 14” limerock), aircraft parking (15” concrete 6” recycled conc. base), and ground service equipment (concrete 6” recycled conc. base). Drainage was accomplished by the use of trench drains outfalling to a pipe network and then to a retention pond. The services for this project include field surveys, geotechnical investigation, geometric layouts, pavement design, storm water management design and permitting, high mast light standards and electrical modifications, relocation of a pump station, blast fence design and relocate security fence, signage, pavement markings, bidding, and construction services.
