Project Description
The Progresstech Group companies-members have widely participated and participate now in the Boeing Co. projects aimed at consolidation of the long-term and mutually beneficial relationship with Russia and the CIS countries following the general corporate strategy targeted on a globalization and a more active promotion of the Boeing products on the aviation markets of Russia and the CIS countries
Under the General Agreement with the Boeing Company Progresstech executed the following works on a contract basis:
Research studies on estimating the interaction between the perspective Boeing aircraft landing gears and airfield pavements, 1994 – 1996
Development of computerized programs for calculation of the Boeing 777-200 landing gear interaction with the airfield pavements of various types, 1996
Full-scale testing of artificial airfield pavements and subgrades for response under loads of multi-wheel landing gears of perspective Boeing aircraft, 1997
Analysis of technical conditions of airports to handle the Boeing aircraft operations for compliance with the ICAO standards and norms, 1997 – 1998
Assessment of the airport infrastructures for compliance with the ICAO requirements imposed on cross-polar enroute alternates for the Boeing aircraft operation, 1998 – 2000
Computation and design of parts, assemblies and systems of various Boeing aircraft models, 1999 – till now
Provided Services
- Research studies
- Development of new mathematical models of the airfield pavement and subgrade performance
- Design of experimental pavement section
- Construction works, including construction site preparation, earthworks, construction of subgrade and asphalt-concrete pavement
- Geodetic survey
- Testing of subgrades and pavements for response under static and dynamic loads of the aircraft landing gears
- Evaluation of airfield pavements for performance and roughness
- Inspection and assessment of 50 airports in Siberia and Far East of Russia, based on the assessment results 13 airports were included in the Russian AIP as enroute alternates to ensure the safety for cross-polar flight operation
- Preparation, mathematical support and processing of the test results
- Structural strength computation and designing & modeling of assemblies and parts for the various Boeing models, including Boeing B-787 Dreamliner, Boeing B-747 LCF
The project was aimed at initiating the COA aircraft operation within the Russian airspace along the routes across the North Pole from/to the Western hemisphere to/from the Eastern hemisphere in accordance with the ETOPS (Extended-range Twin-engine Operational Performance Standards) program, this project was one of the most significant and extensive as implemented by Continental Airlines
Launching of B-777 aircraft in 1995 and planned creation of a new generation of the heavy transport aircraft on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean have called forth development of advanced pavement design procedures based on precise theoretical principles and models as validated by full-scale testing outcomes.
