Background
Dhoho International Airport is new airport currently under construction at Kediri. This development is to boost economic growth in the southern part of East Java; Kediri, Blitar and Nganjuk regency and also to share the load of domestic air traffic in Java island.
Development of Dhoho International Airport has occupied 371 Ha area for its terminal building, associated buildings, airfield, and runways.
Challenge
Dhoho airport is constructed at the foot of Mount Willis. Proposed runway embankment is located on rugged landform and covers existing rivers and channels.
The construction of the runway embankment requires modification to the existing rivers and canals so that the drainage system surrounding Dhoho Airport area can function again. Therefore, two (2) open channels (Bravo and Charlie) and two (2) ponds are proposed to maintain the drainage system and regulate water flow surrounding the runway embankment.
Proposed open channel and pond are designed for water resistant, with no water leaking to surrounding area.
Solution
ReCo provides construction of Environmental Protection Geosynthetic (EPGEO) solutions using TechRevetment, ArmaWeb, HDPE Geomembrane, Terraline and Geotextile non-woven as the slope lining and base layer of channels and ponds. Total area of lining and base is about 35,000 m2.
