Guidebook For Incorporating Sustainability Into Traditional Airport Projects

At head of title: Airport Cooperative Research Program.

TRB's Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Research Report 196: Guidebook for Integrating Collaborative Partnering into Traditional Airport Practices provides guidance for using collaborative partnering for airport construction projects. Collaborative partnering is a structured process to bring owners, designers, and construction teams face-to-face throughout the life of the project, and often is facilitated by a neutral third party. This report explores how airport staff involved with the design, construction, operation, and maintenance phases of constructing new airport assets may use collaborative partnering to potentially enhance tasks during the process.

The International Symposium on Aircraft Technology, MRO, and Operations (ISATECH) is a multi-disciplinary symposium that presents research on current issues in the field of aerospace. The conference provides a platform offering insights on the latest trends in aircraft technology, maintenance, repair, overhaul, and operations that offer innovative solutions to the challenges facing the aviation industry. ISATECH allows researchers, scientists, engineers, practitioners, policymakers, and students to exchange information, present new technologies and developments, and discuss future direction, strategies and priorities.

Airline operations are large, complex, and expensive. Introduction to Aviation Operations Management attempts to systematically present the overall scenario of aviation industry and airline practices. Furthermore, concepts, strategies, and issues prevailing in the aviation industry are addressed through numerous operations management and optimization approaches. The book aims to provide readers with an insight into aviation industry practices with respect to airport management, resource allocation, airline scheduling, disruption management, and sustainability which are significant for day-to-day aviation operations. Features: Presents operations management perspectives in the aviation sector Discusses global scenarios of aviation industry and airline practices Concepts are explained through operations management and optimization approaches Discusses airport management, resource allocation, airline scheduling, and disruption management issues Includes standard practices and issues related to the aviation industry. This book is aimed at senior undergraduate students pursuing programs related to the aviation industry and operations management.

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Aviation and Spaceports Office (ASO) developed this Florida Airport Sustainability Guidebook (Guidebook) to lead Florida’s airports into a successful and sustainable future. To do so, this Guidebook presents airports with recommended methods and guidance for developing an effective sustainability plan and implementing sustainability initiatives. Its primary goal is to give airports the opportunity to become as sustainable as possible, thus enhancing the airport’s economic prosperity and operational efficiency.

The book has been thoroughly revised to reflect the impact of built infrastructure on the environment, social concerns, new technologies and scientific developments, and the impacts of natural and man-made disasters.

This book highlights the latest research in the field of Sustainable Aviation. In recent decades, there have been considerable improvements in aircraft efficiency and noise reduction. However, with the demand for both passenger and freight transportation expected to increase significantly in future years, the aviation sector is becoming a growing source of environmental problems and a major contributor to global warming. Focusing on the need to address this mounting problem, this book discusses important new trends and outlines likely future developments in carbon emission reduction, carbon trading, and the impact of emerging technologies, as well as social, legal, and regulatory changes as they pertain to the aviation sector. The book offers an invaluable reference guide for practitioners, regulators, academics, and students alike, in fields ranging from business and engineering to the social sciences. It can be used as a textbook, and will benefit anyone interested in the future of aviation and our planet.
