Consultancy Services for Soil and Pavement Foundation Reinforcement Design for the Hangar Area – Halim Perdanakusuma Air Force Base

The Consultancy Services for Soil and Pavement Foundation Reinforcement Design for the Hangar Area at Halim Perdanakusuma Air Force Base were conducted to support the improvement of the hangar area’s capacity and stability under aircraft and heavy vehicle operational loads within a military airport environment. The scope of work included geotechnical investigations, assessment of subgrade and pavement bearing capacity, evaluation of existing foundation and pavement systems, and development of soil and pavement foundation reinforcement designs. Key challenges included subgrade conditions requiring high bearing capacity, heavy loading from aircraft and vehicle operations, and the need to maintain long-term stability and service life of the hangar area. The technical approach involved evaluating geotechnical conditions and existing pavement performance, optimizing soil and pavement foundation reinforcement methods, and developing pavement design solutions to enhance the stability, strength, and long-term serviceability of the hangar area.
