Airport Engineering MCQs

Zero fuel weight of an aircraft is:

The slope of the transitional surface for A, B and C type of runway shall be

The total length of a runway is 1000 m. The elevation at distance 0,200 m, 400 m, 600 m, 800 m and 1000 m are 100.0 m, 99.2 m, 101.0 m, 101.8 m, 101.4 m and 101.0 m respectively. The effective gradient of runway will be.

According to I.C.A.O. the slope of transitional surface at right angles to the centre line of runway, is kept

Consider the following statements regarding ICAO recommendation for correction to basic runway length of these statements1. The basic runway length should be increased at the rate of 7 percent per 300 m rise in elevation above the mean sea level.2. The basic runway length after having been corrected for elevation should be further increased at the rate of 1 percent for every 1°C rise in airport reference temperature above the standard atmospheric temperature at that elevation.3. The runway length after having been corrected for elevation and temperature should be further increased at the rate of 20% for every 1 percent of effective gradient.

The centre to centre spacing of heliport lighting along the periphery of landing and takeoff area should be

The runway orientation is made so that landing and takeoff are

Two single runways may be arranged so as to have

The width and interval of transverse centre line bars along the extended centre line of runway, in approach lighting system are
