Abstract
An urgent repair system for earthquake induced distress in airport asphalt pavements such as cracks, faults and potholes is studied. In the paper, the structural evaluation of both earthquake induced distress and the subsequent repairing measures was first conducted, and the urgent repair system for the distress was then investigated. In the former, Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) was used to measure deflections at both cracked and uncracked sections. The urgent repair method in which the resources are stored in airports and repair works are conducted easily without larger manufacturing and construction facilities is proposed, as a result of both laboratory tests and field investigations.
