I'm looking for British or European standards for designing runways? Can't seem to find any books or sites that lsit the quality/standards/legislation that runways need to meet.
Just a nudge in the right direction would be much appreciated.

There is a CAA document that covers the requirements in terms of sizes. There doesn't seem to be anything that covers the actual depths of concrete or whatever.
