This report documents exploratory research conducted to develop a preliminary concept for repairing bomb-damaged runways with prefabricated fiberglass-reinforced plastic membranes. The membranes would function as traffickable caps over backfilled craters. A structural analysis has been completed using the finite element method and a design is presented for a membrane to be traffic-tested under simulated F-4 aircraft wheel loads at the Rapid Runway Repair Test Facility of the Air Force Engineering and Services Center/Research Division at Tyndall AFB, Florida. Methods for joining panels to form large membranes and a tiedown method are discussed. A general concept for rapid runway repair by the Naval Construction Forces using table-of-allowance (P25 and P31) equipment is presented. (Author)
