For either of these alternatives there were no tools to help assess the true safety benefits associated with the solution selected. The study presented in ACRP Report 3 introduced a methodology for risk assessment of RSAs that has been used to evaluate RSA alternatives by the industry.

Project Goals The ultimate objective of this research was to develop a risk assessment tool that can be used to evaluate alternatives for RSA improvements, with a capability to account for the use of EMAS, declared distances, the presence of obstacles, specific operations, weather, and runway conditions. New models were developed, and the capability to evaluate risk for veer-off events was added to the approach presented in ACRP Report 3.
