Both aircraft have dual-wheel configurations, and maximum take-off weights <br />(MTOW) of 62,000 and 164,000 pounds, respectively. Both runways at EUG have dual-wheel gear strength <br />capabilities that exceed the 164,000 pound MTOW of the B737-900. Large charter aircraft also operate <br />throughout the year at EUG, including B757 and B767 aircraft. With a dual-tandem gear strength of <br />400,000 pounds, Runway 16R-34L is adequate to accommodate these heavier aircraft as well. Current <br />runway pavement strength at EUG is adequate, as detailed in Table 3-9, and is recommended to be <br />maintained through the planning period. <br /> <br />TABLE 3-9 <br />PAVEMENT STRENGTH REQUIREMENTS <br />Recommended <br />Existing Pavement <br />Pavement AreaPavement Strength <br />Strength (Gear Type) <br />(Gear Type) <br />Runway 16R-34L <br />& Parallel Taxiway System75,000 lbs.
