Runway and pavement engineering for international airports.

Busy airports need reliable runways, taxiways and aircraft parking areas. Dromo helps operators plan surface, drainage and construction work around aircraft movements and available closures.

Plan for aircraft traffic, weather and construction.

We can start with a survey and an assessment of pavement condition, then develop the design, specifications and construction checks. The work considers aircraft loads, surface levels, drainage, loose debris and engine exhaust, as well as how to carry out repairs while the airport continues to operate.

At IKN Nusantara VVIP Airport, Dromo provided design consultancy and supervised site works through opening. At Cremona Airport, Dromo designed the runway extension. At Cagliari-Elmas Airport, detailed surveys supported assessments for the Pavement Management System, which helps plan pavement maintenance and renewal.

How we can help

From the first survey to the completed works.

Surface & Pavement Assessment

Identify geometric, material, drainage and construction causes before defining intervention.

Runway & Taxiway Geometry

Coordinate profiles, crossfall, transitions and surface continuity.

Aprons & High-Load Areas

Consider loads, joints, jet blast, FOD and maintainable interfaces.

Drainage & Extreme Rain

Model surface flow and collection under current and future weather conditions.

Construction Phasing

Plan technical delivery around access, possession and operational continuity.

Verification & Monitoring

Create traceable condition and geometric baselines for lifecycle management.

The references below show complementary airport-engineering roles across new delivery, runway development and pavement strategy.

Design consultancy · Site supervision

IKN Nusantara VVIP Airport

Dromo provided design consultancy and supervised site works through the airport opening.

Runway development

Cremona Airport

Dromo carried out the engineering design for the runway extension.

Surveying · Pavement strategy

Cagliari-Elmas Airport

Dromo performed high-output airside surveys and strategic Pavement Management System (PMS) assessments.

Understand the problem before choosing the repair.

Dromo can begin with an independent condition, geometry, drainage or delivery review.
