Repair and resurfacing of runway is a complex activity, which requires comprehensive engineering evaluation, selection of suitable materials commensurate to problems and proper co-ordination of construction procedure, and activities. It also demands setting up adequate quality planes and quality assurance methods .For runway resurfacing it is required to determine the nature and extent of deterioration and also the causes of deterioration. For this it is essential to carryout detailed study including overall projection evaluation so as to evolve suitable repair alternatives. In the present paper an attempt has been made to bring out certain salient features of planning and execution of Runway Resurfacing work based on a case study.
