Re: Airfield Runways in Norway

Yeah, Brian, you are right on as it does seem like there are a growing number of possibilities as you more knowledgeable guys begin peeling back the outer layers of this question and take a look at the various options. The decision on what to use must have been made after a careful survey of the land by engineers and construction supervisors and was based on the pecularities prevailing at each location. Building a 1,550 x 80 meter runway was no small undertaking as it required a lot of resources. So I doubt if there was one pro forma method of constructing a concrete runway that was used for all locations.
