The Modern Airport Terminal


The Modern Airport Terminal :
New Approaches to Airport Architecture, Second Edition

This comprehensive guide to the planning and design of airport terminals and their facilities covers all types of airport terminal found around the world and highlights the environmental and technical issues that the designer has to address. 

Contemporary examples are critically reviewed through a series of case studies. This new edition covers the most recent examples of high quality, technically advanced designs from the Far East, Europe and North America.

This book will be a source of inspiration and guiding principles for those who design, commission or manage airport buildings.

Airport Terminals


Airport Terminals
Second Edition

 Airport passenger terminals have developed to be a major new public building-type representing transportation in the late twentieth century. 

The functional planning of facilities for aircraft and people, and the architectural forms to accommodate them, are of great interest to designers and the myriad of people who work in an visit airports. 

The book is a discourse rather than a design guide. It is written for an international readership and illustrated from the author's experience.

Airport Design and Operation


Airport Design and Operation
Second Edition
538 Pages | PDF | 16 MB

The annual number of airline passengers has continued to increase in the past decade, putting great strain on the airports. Increasing volumes of passengers and freight will continue making demands for expansion of airport facilities and construction of new airports. 

Traditionally airport design and airport operation have been treated separately, yet they are closely related and influence each other. Poor design adversely affects operation; sound understanding of operation is needed to enable good design. The aim of this book is to present a new and integrated approach to the two.

This second edition includes some important changes in the international regulations covering design and operations. It reflects the greater attention being given to security, safety and the environment, together with changes in the technology and the way the air transport industry operates.

Transport Terminals and Modal Interchanges : Planning and Design


Transport Terminals and Modal Interchanges : Planning and Design
Christopher Blow

This is the first book to review a trend in transport systems which has only recently come of age: the multi-modal interchange. Separate modes of transport are being linked through 'joined-up thinking', and transport designers and authorities are only now able to exploit interchange opportunities. This book presents examples of how these new opportunities have been planned and designed, and outlines how transfer and mobility can be improved in the future.

Blow takes the airport as the focal point of true multi-modal passenger terminals and presents the development of these buildings as representing a new experience in travel. The book shows that the success of the experience of transferring from one mode of transport to another depends on the many factors, including congestion in an already overloaded system, and the way that designers and managers have addressed contingency planning. International examples are drawn from areas where mobility is most concentrated and the demands on design are at their highest. The book also addresses important issues of rebuilding and redevelopment, where once separate modes of transport are being linked to each other, and where short-term inconveniences rectify past wrongs in the long term. It is a compendium of architectural and engineering achievement.

  • * First book of its kind gives you essential information on multi-modal terminals
  • * International relevance illustrated though case studies from the UK, Europe, North America, Australasia and the Far East
  • * Understand how 'joined-up thinking' is applied on a large scale
