Abstract
Summary We present a case study of a runway construction assessment utilizing ground penetrating radar, heavy weight deflectometry and intrusive data for a proposed horizontal launch spaceport in the United Kingdom. The presentation will showcase an integrated approach of non-destructive and intrusive elements on an existing runway to assess planned use and potential requirements for upgrade the existing infrastructure for new purposes.
