The owner identified a need to perform a pavement evaluation of Runway 10-28  in order to assess and develop eventual pavement rehabilitation and/or replacement alternatives.  The runway itself is approximately 7,500 ft long x 150 ft wide.

The work performed included: 1) reviewing existing literature from the owner’s files; 2) performing a Visual Condition Survey of Runway 10-28 to determine the Pavement Condition Index (PCI); 3) performing nondestructive testing utilizing a Heavy Weight Delectormeter (HWD); 4) performing destructive testing, which included, pavement cores, test borings, sampling for California Bearing Ratio (CBR) tests; and, 5) providing value engineering and assistance in bid preparation.

The project consisted of the construction of a new 10,000 sq ft hangar structure with paved parking areas and a shallow, dry retention pond on the southwestern portion of the project site.

The purpose of the work performed by ASC geosciences for the project site was to describe soil and ground-water conditions encountered at the site and to evaluate the subsurface conditions for the subsequent construction of the proposed hangar structure.

The project consisted of the reconstruction of the existing perimeter secure road.  The purpose of the field exploration services performed by ASC for the project site was to describe, in general terms, soil and ground-water conditions encountered at the boring locations, to assess the existing pavement section by performing field cores, and to assess the existing in-place bearing ratio of surficial soils at certain locations across the project site.

This project involved relocation of Taxiways F, G, and L at Lakeland Linder Airport. 

ASC geosciences provided geotechnical engineering services for general evaluation of subsoil and ground-water conditions which included obtaining 10 pavement cores at selected locations to evaluate pavement section thickness.

ASC geosciences performed Quality Assurance Testing Services for: i) New General Aviation Terminal at the Lakeland Linder Regional Airport; ii) Terminal Roadway Improvements; and, iii) Taxiway “A” Improvements (Phase I, II). 

During construction, ASC performed Quality Assurance Testing Services on:
Existing subgrade, Fill, Stabilized subgrade, Limerock base, Pipe backfill, Bituminous Pavement (P-401), Building/Threshold Inspections, Masonry/ Concrete, and Structural Steel.

ASC geosciences provided geotechnical design support for Taxiways Lima, Alpha, Papa and appurtenant facilities.

ASC’s scope of services included: 1)advancing eleven 10-ft deep test borings along the proposed taxiway alignment to generally evaluate subsurface soil and ground-water table conditions as well as Seasonal High Water Level (SHWL) estimates; 2) obtaining representative soil samples from the test borings and sampling for 3 California Bearing Ratio (CBR) tests; 3) performing laboratory inspection and classification testing on selected samples, as necessary, to develop engineering parameters; and, 5) compiling field exploration and laboratory testing data and providing an evaluation of the subsoil conditions encountered in the borings.

ASC geosciences provided all Quality Assurance Testing Services  for soils, concrete, and asphalt materials to be used on this project.

The Runway 8-26 Reconstruction project included demolition of the existing 6,000 ft. long runway, and subsequent reconstruction of a 6,000 ft long by 200 ft wide runway.  New runway lighting was also associated with this project as was new drainage structures and certain other drainage improvements.  In the near future, Runway 8-26 may be lengthened to 7,000 ft to accommodate larger commercial airline traffic.

ASC geosciences, inc. was retained to provide field exploration and testing services for design of the proposed ARFF Bridge project located at Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport.  The purpose of the work performed by ASC for the project site was to report soil and ground-water conditions encountered at the project site and to evaluate the subsurface conditions for the subsequent construction of the ARFF Bridge .
