ACRP Report 42: Sustainable Airport Construction Practices

Publication Date

Abstract

ACRP Report 42: Sustainable Airport Construction Practices contains a collection of sustainable practices that can be implemented during the construction phase of an airport project and a user's guide to the collection. This collection includes best practices, methods, procedures, and materials and is provided in a searchable, filterable spreadsheet format that can be downloaded below. This collection focuses only on those practices that are implemented during construction that will have a sustainable impact by having either a positive economic, operational, environmental, or social effect. The collection is categorized by construction phases (Pre-Construction, During Construction, and Commissioning) and by practices (Policies and Regulations, Construction Methods, Logistics, Equipment, Surface Transportation, Reuse and Recycling Materials, and Sustainable Materials) and can be filtered or searched by either construction phase or practice. The collection, supported by the user's guide, will be useful for airport CEOs, directors, planners, environmental technicians, and airport engineers and designers during the initial planning, design, and construction phases of a given project.
