Airside
infrastructure

Runways, aprons and hangars under ICAO and DINAC regulations, with the FAA’s FAARFIELD methodology for aircraft pavement loading.

Approach

Airside infrastructure

Airside infrastructure operates under strict international standards (ICAO) and the national aviation authority’s regulations (DINAC in Paraguay). The pavements require analysis of loading that has no road equivalent: landing gear configurations, high localized contact pressures and concentrated load cycles.

We apply the FAA’s FAARFIELD methodology to size runways and taxiways, working from the design aircraft category, the frequency of operations and the design life. On aprons we combine aeronautical criteria with operational safety: clearances, maneuvering capability, and marking and signage to ICAO.

We support clients through DINAC procedures for the approval of works and installations, including technical documentation, validation testing and compliance audits.

Capabilities

What we do

Airside infrastructure engineering in Paraguay: runways, taxiways, aprons and hangars under ICAO and DINAC regulations, with FAARFIELD pavement methodology.

Aircraft pavements

The FAA’s FAARFIELD methodology for runways and taxiways, accounting for landing-gear loading and tyre contact pressures.

Aprons and taxiways

Design combining aeronautical criteria with operational safety: clearances, maneuvering capability, ICAO marking and signage.

Private runways

Complete engineering for private airstrips: survey, geometric design, pavement and drainage.

Private hangars

Load analysis to applicable building standards, with structural sizing and foundations suited to the airside environment.

Airside drainage

Sub-drainage systems that hold bearing capacity through operations — the difference between a runway that stays open and one that does not.

DINAC and ICAO framework

Support through approval procedures, technical documentation, validation testing and compliance audits.
