Field Manual (FM) 5-430 is intended for use as a training guide and reference text for engineer personnel responsible for planning, designing, and constructing roads, airfields, and heliports in the theater of operations (TO). FM 5-430 is divided into two separate volumes to make it more user-friendly. FM 5-430-00-1/AFJPAM 32-8013, vol. 1, Road Design, encompasses Chapters 1 through 9 and Appendices A through H. FM 5-430-00-1/AFJPAM 32-8013, Vol. 1 is a stand-alone volume for the design of TO roads. This volume also serves as a detailed description of information common to both roads and airfields, such as site selection, survey and earthwork, clearing and grubbing, base and subbase courses, and drainage.

The United States Army Engineer School developed this publication with the joint participation of the approving Service commands. The test procedures and terminology used in this manual conform to the latest methods and specifications of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), the American Concrete Institute, and the Portland Cement Association. The ASTM source publications are not required for testing specified in this document as the procedure is fully explained for military personnel use. This manual, "Theater of Operations: Roads, Airfields, and Heliports - Airfield and Heliport Design," (TM 3-34.48-2 / formerly FM 5-430-00-2) is adopted for use by United States Navy and United States Air Force personnel. Certain tests and procedures prescribed differ in principle or method and are more detailed than counterpart tests that are currently required by the United States Navy for new construction at Navy installations (including those in forward areas). The tests in this manual also apply to arctic construction. However, cold-weather effects present different problems and additional tests will be required for correct evaluation of the materials.
