Optimising pavement management and asset infrastructure investment strategies

Airfield Engineering and Asset Maintenance 2011 brings together the key stakeholders from airports across the globe to share world-class approaches to airfield maintenance, rebuild and extension programmes and planning.

As airport engineers, operational and maintenance heads you're working under extremely challenging operational scheduling and cost constraints. In addition new, larger aircraft types and higher traffic levels require you to plan significant extension and refurbishment of airfield assets to ensure your airport is not left behind.

The need for runway expansions, upgrades and refurbishments are increasing the demands made on your airfield maintenance plans and strategies. At the same time, the windows of opportunity for carrying out this work whilst maintaining operational efficiency are also becoming more limited.

This conference is your opportunity to develop strategies to overcome the critical challenges faced by airfield engineers, operations and maintenance officers on a daily basis. By attending you'll be enhancing your ability to effectively plan and execute major airfield maintenance and engineering projects. You'll interact with experts from the world's major airports and understand how they approach the operational and planning hurdles you share.

Airfield Engineering and Asset Maintenance 2011 is an evolution of our globally successful series of strategic airport pavement design and management conferences. This year the conference is growing to explore other key engineering and maintenance challenges faced by airfield operators, including issues faced when designing and managing safety systems, lighting, painting, drainage and hangars. Two conference streams will give you essential updates on:

Five essential ways attending Airfield Engineering and Asset Maintenance 2011 will impact your plans for development:

• Develop robust, cost effective strategies for pavement and runway management
• Benchmark your operational effectiveness and capabilities – get critical insight to overcome operational and engineering challenges from over 25 airport and regulator experts
• Make a measurable impact on airfield performance – engineering focused sessions bring you the very latest essential research on materials, testing and friction challenges
• Understand the diverse tactics employed by airside engineering experts from Europe, North America, Asia, Australasia and the Middle East – your operations will be more efficient and high impact
• Define strategies that effectively combine long-term airfield development and expansion plans with operational engineering and maintenance challenges
