Assessment of the Infrastructure Engineering Vulnerabilities Associated with Potential Climate and Weather-related Impacts at Three Northern Airports

The principal objective of this project is to identify those components of the specified airport infrastructure that are at risk of failure, damage, loss of service and/or deterioration from extreme climatic events or significant changes to baseline climate design values.

The nature and relative levels of climate risk are to be determined in order to establish priorities for remedial action. The assessment shall be carried out using the PIEVC Engineering Protocol, Version 10 dated October 2011.  

The results of this project are intended to inform, where appropriate, investment and asset management decisions by the owners and operators. The results of this project may also be analyzed with other case studies to develop, in the future, recommendations around reviews of codes, standards and engineering practices.
