What is Revised ACN Values for Aerodrome Pavements about?

The UK Civil Aviation Authority issued a notice to inform aerodrome licence holders of revised alpha factor values for flexible pavements to account for large aircraft with 6-wheel main landing gears. Research showed the original theories did not correctly predict stresses from these aircraft. The notice details new alpha factor values, with the value for 4-wheel gears decreased to 0.80 and 6-wheel gears kept at 0.72. Aerodrome operators may apply the new factors in pavement projects.
