PCN
Pavement classification number (pcn)
a rating system that expresses the relative
load carrying capacity of a pavement in terms
of a standard single wheel load. the rating
is structured so that a pavement with a
particular pcn value can support, without
weight restrictions, an aircraft which has
an aircraft classification number (acn) equal
to or less than the pavement's pcn value.
(ex. 61/f/b/x/t)
the data format is pcn/pavement type/subgrade
strength/tire pressure/determination method
where:
pcn: a numerical value
pavement type: r - rigid f - flexible
subgrade strength: letters a-f
tire pressure code: letters w-z
determination method: t - technical
u - using aircraft
see faa advisory circular 150/5335-5 for
code definitions and pcn determination formula.
