# CS ADR-DSN.B.200 Stopways

Certification Specifications and Guidance Material for Aerodrome Design (CS-ADR-DSN) — Issue 7 · Regulation (EU) No 139/2014 · EAR revision 13 Mar 2026

IR Implementing rule

## CS ADR-DSN.B.200 Stopways

(a) The inclusion of detailed specifications for stopways below is not intended to imply that a [stopway](https://avioverse.aero/glossary/easa/stopway) has to be provided.

(b) Width of stopways:

A stopway should have the same width as the [runway](https://avioverse.aero/glossary/easa/runway) with which it is associated.

(c) Slopes on stopways:

Slopes and changes in slope on a stopway, and the transition from a runway to a stopway, should comply with the specifications in CS ADR-DSN.B.060 to CS ADR-DSN.B.080 for the runway with which the stopway is associated except that:

(1) the limitation in CS ADR-DSN.B.060(c) of a 0.8 % slope for the first and last quarter of the length of a runway need not be applied to the stopway; and

(2) at the junction of the stopway and runway and along the stopway the maximum rate of slope change may be 0.3 % per 30 m (minimum radius of curvature of 10 000 m) for a runway where the code number is 3 or 4.

(d) Strength of stopways:

A stopway should be prepared or constructed so as to be capable, in the event of an abandoned take-off, of supporting the [aeroplane](https://avioverse.aero/glossary/easa/aeroplane) which the stopway is intended to serve without inducing structural damage to the aeroplane.

(e) Surface of stopways:

The surface of a paved stopway should be so constructed or resurfaced as to provide [surface friction](https://avioverse.aero/glossary/easa/surface-friction) characteristics at or above those of the associated runway.
