Soil improvement for taxiway and apron due to soft ground problem

Soft ground created a lot of problems to the structure or pavement. The safety of the aircraft movements through taxiway and parking the aircraft on parking apron is subjected to standard as required by International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). Thus, soft soil affected the performance of the...

Civil engineering (General) Soft ground created a lot of problems to the structure or pavement. The safety of the aircraft movements through taxiway and parking the aircraft on parking apron is subjected to standard as required by International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).
