Due to the impact of forces exerted by aircrafts on rigid and flexible pavements, degree of damage to runways’ pavement during utilization, the increasing development of aircraft industry, production of different types of aircraft, the scientific advancement in Civil Engineering and the use of new materials such as roller-compacted concrete (RCC) the use of pavements has been safe and comfortable. In this paper, the tension in rigid pavement of runways has been analyzed and compared using finite element analysis by ABAQUS, FEAFAA softwares. Comparing this tension and the number of flights by plan based airplane, the desired result will be reached and the optimal pavement design from economic and technical perspectives will be chosen to run.
