Rehab Runway 14/32 with PFC

This project included removal and replacement of the Porous Friction Course on the entire 8,300 ft. primary runway at Sheridan, WY. Specific features included: rotomilling off the existing PFC surfacing, plus 1½ - 2 inches of the underlying dense graded asphalt pavement; placement of a dense graded asphalt leveling course, followed by a new 1” nominal thickness PFC layer; minor shoulder grading to match the new pavement surface; and completion of new pavement markings for the entire runway. Work was conducted under a tight construction time line of 42 working days in order to minimize impact on the airport. In addition, the cross-wind Runway 5/23 was required to remain open to aircraft traffic at all times.
