Airport Design Tools, Videos and Drawings for Advisory Circular 150/5300-13
Additional Design Technical Videos, Tools, and Drawings
Advisory Circular
- Aircraft Characteristics Database
For aircraft with a CMG and MGW combination in the TDG 2 category, use the ADG and TDG Classification Tool below to calculate TDG 2A and 2B. - ADG and TDG Classification Tool (added 4/4/2022)
- Acute Angle Exit Tool (added 8/19/2022)
- Taxiway Fillet Design Tool (MS Excel) (updated 1/18/2023)
- Runway Exit Design Interactive Model (REDIM)
REDIM is a computer model developed to locate and design high-speed runway and right angle exits at airports. The model uses kinematic equations to characterize the aircraft landing dynamics and a polynomial-time dynamic programming algorithm to find the optimal locations of the exits. The objective of the optimization algorithm is to minimize the weighted average runway occupancy time (ROT) of an aircraft mix selected by the user. A database of aircraft characteristics by Aircraft Approach Category (AAC) has been included in the model to facilitate its use in a large variety of airport environments and conditions. The program is a technical planning tool.
