  1. Center of Excellence for Airport Technology A Partnership in Research and Outreach with theO’Hare Modernization Program David LangeDepartment of Civil and Environmental EngineeringUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

  2. 2005 • A milestone year for OMP! • Successful partnership… • Tangible benefits to OMP • Tangible benefits to CEAT • Successful research at UIUC • Successful integration of results at OMP • Successful outreach initiatives • And a bright future for 2006!

  3. Benefits to OMP in 2005 • Illuminate technical issues… improve decisions! • Subgrade stabilization study contributed to decisions that avoided additional test sections, saving over $100,000. • Improved specification language for lime modification and lime stabilization, providing for improved construction quality and reduced potential for weather-related construction delays. • Study of soil and turfgrass contributed to a decision to avoid import of topsoil to O’Hare, saving millions of dollars. • Improved specification language to achieve longer pavement service life with more durable aggregates. • Improved specification language to reduce shrinkage cracking potential. • Strategies to reduce concrete cost compared to previous O’Hare mixtures, with potential to save over $100,000 on the 9L-27R new north runway. • 20 Tech Notes covering wide range of issues
