The Best Investment for Airports:
Reinforced Concrete Provides Lowest Overall Life-Cycle Costs Now and in the Future

Since the very beginning of airport construction in the modern age reinforced concrete has proved itself an invaluable material for building airports, from runways to terminals, parking structures to roadways, people movers to hotels.

With airport traffic having grown from nearly 60 million passengers in 1960 to an estimated one billion passengers in 2010, many airports built at the beginning of the jet age are in serious need of repair and expansion as progress sweeps us into the 21st century.

To meet those needs, airport owners, designers, and builders continue to look to reinforced concrete for the best short- and long-term value because it consistently delivers lower capital costs, higher long-term durability, and lower overall life-cycle costs.

"The Sky's the Limit: Concrete Airport Applications" With reinforced concrete, the aviation industry strives to create, expand, and renovate its airside and landside facilities. The Concrete Reinforcing Steel Institute is pleased to present "The Sky's the Limit" brochure, an overview of reinforced concrete's diverse applications at a dozen leading U.S. airports. To order free paper copies of this brochure, contact request@crsi.org.

CRC Highway Pave and Airpave Combo Software (CD-ROM) CRC-HIGHWAY PAVE and CRC-AIRPAVE are now available in a CD-ROM package. CRC-HIGHWAY PAVE is a tool for the design and analysis of continuously reinforced concrete pavement for highways and roads. CRC-AIRPAVE is a tool for the design and analysis of continuously reinforced concrete pavement for airports and industrial pavement, such as intermodal terminals.
