... 89 The Effect of Aircraft Loading on Cost of Structures The biggest factor that increases the cost of certain airport drainage infrastructure such as catch basins, drain manholes, and pipes is the design live load, or the load of moving objects such as trucks, buses, and cars. These live loads can differ between highways and airport settings, making it difficult to translate highway costs to the airport setting.

... Factors Affecting Costs of Stormwater Infrastructure Projects at Airports 91 reinforcement bars, and the thickness and strength of the structure rim or grate on top. In addition to material cost increases, the design of these structures typically requires more engineering time, material forming and layout time, and quality control time.

... 92 Benefit–Cost Analyses Guidebook for Airport Stormwater The Effect of the Type of Construction on the Cost of Stormwater Facilities Stormwater project prices are also affected by the type of construction that is required. New construction on unimproved sites will typically be less expensive than rehabilitation projects on existing sites.

... Factors Affecting Costs of Stormwater Infrastructure Projects at Airports 93 feasible methods to plan for and design stormwater projects. For example, Florida has terrain and an environment that are almost unique, and the state makes guidance available on how to manage stormwater project planning and design (Florida Department of Transportation – Aviation Office, 2013)
