After the download is complete, then open your PDF document handler such as Adobe Reader. Then open the AC from within the PDF program, not the file explorer. If your computer opens a PDF document in a browser such as Internet Explorer, then the matrix may not function interactively. --If you cannot get the matrix to respond interactively, then you will have to use the manual look-up tables (Appendix 7). --Ask your instructor or fellow students for help if you cannot get the matrix to function interactively. -The Runway Design Standards Matrix will guide sequentially the next few course lessons. -The entering arguments/variables for this runway design standards matrix are in the top lines and consist of: -Aircraft Approach Category AAC -Airplane Design Group ADG -Runway Design Code RDC -Visibility minimums Runway Design Code (RDC) -In this lesson, these four runway design standards matrix input variables will be studied. Critical design aircraft - runway -Critical Design Aircraft - Runway --Identifies the aircraft utilizing a runway that requires the largest dimensions such as runway length, width, parallel runway separation, and many other dimensions associated with runway safety. --Every runway does not have to accommodate every aircraft, i.e., there can be a different runway design aircraft for different runways. -Design Aircraft. An aircraft with (most demanding, typically largest) characteristics that determine the application of airport design standards for a specific runway. This aircraft can be a specific aircraft model or a composite of several aircraft using, expected, or intended to use the airport or part of the airport. (Also called “critical aircraft” or “critical design aircraft.”) Aircraft characteristics and related airport design components These Aircraft Characteristics Determine These Airport Dimensions Approach Speed Runway width, runway-to-taxiway separation Landing and Takeoff Distance Runway length Cockpit to Main Gear Distance (CMG) Fillet design, parking layout Main Gear Width (MGW) Taxiway width, fillet design Wingspan / Tail Height Taxiway-to-taxiway separation, runway to taxiway separation -Airports must be designed to accommodate one or more specific aircraft expected to utilize the airport, i.e., the design aircraft. --There can be a different design aircraft for runways and taxiways/taxilanes. -Critical Design Aircraft - Runway --Identifies the aircraft utilizing a runway that requires the largest dimensions such as runway length, width, parallel runway separation, and many other dimensions associated with runway safety. --Every runway does not have to accommodate every aircraft, i.e., there can be a different runway design aircraft for different runways. -The procedure to determine the runway design aircraft for a particular runway is as follows. --Starting with the largest few aircraft using the runway, determine for each aircraft the: ---Aircraft Approach Category AAC ---Airplane Design Group ADG ---Runway Design Code (RDC) --The aircraft with the highest RDC is the design aircraft for that runway. Aircraft Approach Category (AAC). -Aircraft approach category (AAC). A grouping of aircraft based on aircraft approach speed, a reference landing speed (VREF), if specified, or if VREF is not specified, 1.3 times stall speed (VSO) at the maximum certificated landing weight. VREF, VSO, and the maximum certificated landing weight are those values as established for the aircraft by the certification authority of the country of registry. -VREF = approach/reference speed in landing configuration (e.g., landing gear down, flaps down) at maximum landing weight. --Examples: Airbus 320 VREF = 136 knots Boeing 747-400ER VREF = 157 knots --See AC 150/5300-13A, Appendix 1, Table A1-1, Aircraft characteristics database – sorted by aircraft manufacturer. -Aircraft approach speeds are categorized in the following table. Table 1-1. Aircraft Approach Category (AAC) AAC VREF/Approach Speed A Approach speed less than 91 knots B Approach speed 91 knots or more but less than 121 knots C Approach speed 121 knots or more but less than 141 knots D Approach speed 141 knots or more but less than 166 knots E Approach speed 166 knots or more -Examples: AircraftAAC Airbus 320 C Boeing 747-400ER D -AC 150/5300-13A, Appendix 1, Table A1-1, Aircraft characteristics database – sorted by aircraft manufacturer, contains AACs for common aircraft. Airplane Design Group ADG -Airplane Design Group (ADG). A classification of aircraft based on wingspan and tail height. -Wingspan. The maximum horizontal distance from one wingtip to the other wingtip, including the horizontal component of any extensions such as winglets or raked wingtips. -Tail height is not so obvious as a design runway factor. --An aircraft holding for takeoff or on a parallel taxiway near the landing runway represents an obstacle to a landing aircraft, especially if the landing aircraft needs to go around or abort the approach. The tail height affects the safety of the overflying aircraft. Tail height will affect the runway protection zones and areas to be discussed later. -Knowing tail height and wingspan, ADG is determined from Table 1-2. When the aircraft wingspan and tail height fall in different groups, the higher group is used. Table 1-2.

aircraft under instrument flight conditions from the beginning of the initial approach to a landing or to a point from which a landing may be made visually. -3 approach procedure classifications

visibility below 3/4 mile (4000 rvr). ---example: ils approach ---threshold (th). the beginning of that portion of the runway available for landing. in some instances, the threshold may be displaced. “threshold” always refers to landing, not the start of takeoff. ---precision approach (pa). an instrument approach procedure that provides course and vertical path guidance with visibility below 3/4 mile (4000 rvr). ---precision runway. a runway with at least one end having a precision approach procedure. ---precision instrument approaches are also classified by categories ---category-i (cat-i).

or a runway visual range not less than 1800 ft. ----any instrument rated pilot can land from cat i approaches ---category-ii (cat-ii). an instrument approach or approach and landing with a height
