Palestine International Airport (Al-Auja)

b- Longitudinal Profile of Left Runway

The profile for the centerline of the left runway was created and summarized in Table 7-

7 ; based on the standards listed in Table 7- 5 for the runway surface gradient. The profile

of the left runway is attached in the Appendix.

Table 7 - 7 Details of the Left Runway's Longitudinal Profile, in m

Curve PVI Station PVI Elevation Grade In Grade Out Vertical Curve Length(m) (Grade Change)A^ Curve Type

1 1+500.88 - 270.264 - 0.07% - 0.80% 430 0.73% Crest

Sample of Calculations:

− Minimum length of the vertical curve = 305 m for each 1% change in grade

= 305*0.73

= 223 m
