The single most valuable asset to a road owner is the pavement system within the network. GHD understands that pavements are subjected to static and dynamic loads as well as exposure to the elements. Sound engineering judgment, made by experienced and talented professionals, can provide cost-effective and appropriate solutions to pavement engineering challenges.
Pavement engineering is part of GHD's core business of providing transportation infrastructure. Our connected global network of pavement engineering professionals undertakes investigation, analysis design and documentation services for the construction, rehabilitation and strengthening of pavements. Our services cover pavements for airfields, local roads, major freeways, highways, mine access, heavy industrial and haul roads, including the sourcing, selection and specification of materials. Our teams provide specialist whole-of-life analysis options to optimise the life of the pavement and minimise the overall cost of the maintenance during the operational life of the asset.
GHD understands the imperatives of our road clients and we are focused on delivering a fully comprehensive service in a timely manner while meeting safety, quality, performance and financial requirements.
One of GHD's key strengths is our innovative approach to sustainable pavement design. This has been achieved by our close connections with research centres across the globe. Our teams regularly attend and contribute to international study tours and conferences to stay abreast of latest technologies.

Overall, the [new aircraft stands] project was completed on time and on budget. It also delivered an innovative solution that will be used on other projects across the airport. This has been a great model in project management and design that the Auckland Airport will use again.
