Hai.. airport... Padagdag na lng po ulit sa kulang na requirements. update ko po ulit to next time. pati sa sizes ng eroplano at runway.

malaking tulong ito sa mga students,,pero mas maganda siguro kung pati yung flow nya ma explain and which areas should be adjacent or near to each other,,

ok sir. hmm... tingin ko patulong din ako sa ganung explanation. hehe

waiting area
clinic/quarantine area
custom office
refund counter for tourist
foreign exchange

add ko lang bro:

yup magandang idea yan sir....acutually complicated na masayng gawin ang airport...pero once nakuha mu na yung flow especially ng baggage, departing and arrival and the admin mas madali ang trabaho!
Sana sir me magpost nga ng flow/circulation ng airport

sa hairport ako ngttrabaho wala ako mabigay bigay hehe.

mech rm/ mech pump rm.
gangway/tube
concessions
fire escapes

binibigyan pansin din dito yung location ng mga cctv cameras.

vip entrance,,,page section room ba yun,,stalls,,malaman yung flow nya yun yun da best na design

add ko lang po... with regards sa arrivals... notice how humongous the areas where the carousels are? give this area ahuge consideration... eheh additional lang po ^^... I remember one of our profs pointing this out in college ^^

i previously worked in a airport design consultancy firm, wla kc masyado project kaya i have a luxury of time reading ung design guides nila on planning an airport,,,, one of the golden rules nila is
1.)circulation ng passengers, dapat daw hinde mag-pang abot ung mga departure passengers sa arrival passengers,,, kaya usually may makikita kang viaduct sa harap ng terminal kc un ang main purpose noon. example( kung departure ka,,,via duct=3rdlvl to gangway bridge=2ndlvl ang course mo///// at kung arrival k nmn gangway bridge=2ndlvl to parking=ground lvl)
2.)no trees/folliages sa landscape or vicinity. Kc mkaka-attract ng migratory birds ang mga ito at makakasira sa mga eroplano.
3.)ang nag didictate ng sizes ng rooms, dami ng aprons(term nila sa parking space ng airplane), gangway bridges, terminal gates, runways, taxiways,
hangar, fuel farms, control tower etc...ay ang "estimate of travelling passengers sa city",,, dapat daw directly proportional ang mga ito...
4.)essential dw na may central plant electrical ang airport terminal kc mahihirapan ang mga piloto mag land ng airplane kung incase mag blackout at mawalan sila ng lighting signals sa runway.

ung mga pic layouts sa taas,,, may mga ups and downs yan na dapat ma-iconsider while designing,,,, for example ung linear layout A,,, maganda yan
kc madali mag park sa apron ang airplane thus minimizing the delays, kaso malaki ang kinakain sa land area at mapipilitan kapa mag-produce ng walkalator kapag masyado mahaba. perfect example nito ay ang NAIA terminal 3 (google earth it). Yung layout C naman is mahirap mag park ng planes sa apron thus resulting to delays pero makaka-save k naman sa land space, naia terminal 1 ang example nito,,,

hope it helps sa mga students na gumagawa ng thesis regarding airport.

dapat nasa conceptual stage ito sir hindi sa architectural

sorry sir boks,di ko nabasa ng maaga yung architectural discussion

thanks po sir. . .sakto airport plate namin ngayon

nOelito, san ka nagaaral?

as far as i am aware basic space req. nang international airport

administrative offices kasama na dun yung mga airline office, medical facilities, briefing rooms.toilet facilities.

tpos

-front concourse (entry)
-check in area kasama na dun yung conveyor belt (na may kasamang scanner)may tinatawag din silang "sorting device" or carousel na nakaattach din sa conveyor belt bale makukuha na ng mga pasahero yung baggage nila pg nasa "pre-departure" area na sila.

-pagkatapos dun na tayo sa screening international lanes/domestic lanes andun na syempre yung immigration office kasama yung counter nila at office nang PNP.

-another security check na naman.
-tpos "departure area" na kung saan dun na nila makukuha yung mga baggage nila at andun na rin yung mga commercial facilities,V.I.P rooms, toilet facilities.
-at extension nang departures syempre yung "pre-departure area" tpos lipad na.

dun naman sa "arrival"

paglapag nang eroplano baba sila nang eroplano tpos diretso na arrival area pero kung big time yung airport hindi na bababa nang eroplano yung mga pasahero kasi itututok na mismo nang eroplano yung pintu nya dun sa "tube" or gangway area na parang isang hallway na naka dikit na sa arrival hall, as far as ii am aware for security and privacy purpose yun.dito sa pampanga dalawa na yung "tube" or gangway nila.

-pagkatapos dun na sila sa arrival area, dito na ako hindi masyado pamilyar pero as far as i remember merong ditong mga commercial areas toilet facilities,quarrantine are, immigration area na may international at domestic lanes,customs.

-tpos meron pang "arrival lobby" na may mga area para sa iba't ibang agency.

-then finally "meeters/greeters" area na kung saan nila mayayakap yung mga asawa't anak nila.andun na rin yung bilihan nang mga pasalubong

other requirements natural meron mga electrical genset rm. utility maintenance areas, mechanical/pump rm.

yung iba ko pang knowledge sa mga codes pwede namang mag landscaping dun sa "landside area" kung saan yung concourse pero bawal na bawal maglandscape sa loob ng airport at dun sa "airside area" kasi nakakaatract ng mga ibon at pwedeng magdulot nang "birdstrike" at masakit yun.

bale ang pinagkaiba nang domestic wala silang "immigration/customs area" at mas maliit ang mga runway nang domestic, at makikita nyo rin nman yun sa library nang mga paaralan nyo malamang.

hindi rin basta basta yung "structural aspect" ng mga salamin at bintana ng airport kasi may mga pagkakataon na nababasag yung mga salamin dahil sa tunog na ginagawa ng mga erplane.

at isa pa napansin ko sa airport designing "security" yung nagdidikta sa planning. sobrang secure

yun lang muna masheshare ko mga bros,dudes.pero we all make mistakes paki correct nalang kung may mga errors or omissions man ako.

search for a book called "Reference Manual IATA". its all about international airport terminal standards. magandang reference yan

tama, buy the IATA book may ganyan kami sa planning department dati its all about airport standards.

PUP po sir

Add ko lang po sana mga sir, ang "baggage sorting area" ay security-enclosed room na ang pwede lang pumasok ay ang cargo-tug drivers and baggage loaders. Malaki yung paradahan ng pallets dito kasi abot hanggang 3.00mtrs ang length ng isan pallet. Saka make sure po na visible sa Security Personnel ang buong area kasi for sure may mga kawatan na loaders and drivers diyan which is one of the biggest issues na sinusumbong ng mga passengers na kedyo binuksan daw at may mga kinuhang gamit sa kanila. This does not only occur sa mga airports natin talamak din ang ganitong din ang ganitong baggage theft cases sa U.S. airports.

Make sure din po na may direct access from the airport passenger transporter (airport bus) from the tarmac to the immigration or baggage claim area kasi minsan pag sabay-sabay ang dating po ng mga flights eh nilalagay dun sa parang "open parking" yung eruplano tapos kukunin nalang ng buses ang passengers. Naranasan ko na ito madalas sa NAIA Terminal 2 direcho na sa Baggage claim. Pero may ibang airports na Passenger transporter system ang gamit nila talaga like sa Dulles Int'l. Aiport sa Washington saka sa King Abdullah-Aziz Int'l. Airport sa Jeddah.

Yun lang po.

wow. laking tulong nito sir, thesis ko ngayon yan. sana mapost mo pa yung plan at concept niya sir. thanks

Wow super thanks po!. nag register pa ko dito para lang masabing ang laking tulong hmm chaka nice forum din

Airports are system-based design depending on the given site and it's factors. What I would think first is the form that would respond to the Urban image of the city or its location. Whenever you travel, the very first thing that you will remember is the airport, right? So create the memorable strcuture first. Look at the big picture, because surely those given layouts above are proven to work later on.

Just my two cents worth.

ayun share ko to sa kaibigan ko salamat sir

ano po ang occupant load sa airport? thanks!
