RUNWAY RELIABILITY ANALYSIS USING THE PAVEMENT CONDITION INDEX (PCI) METHOD AT YOGYAKARTA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

Abstract

Yogyakarta International Airport has airside facilities, namely a runway with a length of 3,250 meters and a width of 45 meters with a pavement strength of PCN 89 F/C/X/T. Yogyakarta International Airport currently has a runway pavement age of 5 years, where in pavement maintenance activities, pavement condition index values ​​have never been tested during the life of the pavement. This study aimed to analyze the runway pavement condition at Yogyakarta International Airport using the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) method. The research methodology is qualitative descriptive, with data collection carried out by observation, interviews, documentation, and literature studies. The data analysis technique used is a comparative technique. The study results showed that the runway of Yogyakarta International Airport had a value of 99.7 based on the PCI calculation. However, there was still some damage, the most being the loose material with an area of ​​25.55 m2. The results of this study obtained measured values ​​of pavement conditions and damage conditions on the pavement so that they can be used as a reference for the runway repair process. This research concludes that Yogyakarta International Airport is classified as good in accommodating operational activities.
