Cairo International Airport Terminal Building 3 - Landside and Airside Facilities

Integrated landside and airside facilities were developed in order to facilitate movement and transportation of the passengers, tourists and others, accommodate a large number of vehicles from the new airport extension Terminal Building (TB3), and provide connection between TB3, TB2 and Cairo City and vice versa. The landside facilities include road system (roads length 9,000 m and 7/10 m wide, area 68,000 m²), car parks (77,000 m²), flyover bridges and elevated roads (1,885 m long and 7/9 m wide, area 15,000 m²), serving the traffic to and from the terminal building. The airside facilities include apron service loads, areas for ground handling equipment and aircraft parking configuration.

The project included a group of bridges as follows:

• Departure Elevated Bridge: reinforced concrete continuous girder of multiple lane bridge. The slab is built monolithic with girder, the connection between the girder and the slab offers restraint on the slab.
• Arrival Road Bridge: parallel to the departure bridge having the same statically system and structural dimensions and is constructed on reinforced concrete deck structure rested on roads of three columns supported on RC piles.
• Autostrad Bridge: reinforced concrete continuous box girder type supported on reinforced concrete wall rested on RC piles.

The scope of work covers preparation of conceptual master plan including data analysis for traffic density and future requirements, conceptual design for sanitary and rain water drainage networks, lighting, automatic gates and entrance control units, fire protection; conceptual design for the investment services building; preparation of a Basis of Design Report (BODR) including cost estimate and time schedule; preparation of a 3-D Model with scale of 1:500, technical report, economic studies report and drawings; and participation in the presentation and demonstration for the project elements; detailed engineering; tender documents, tender evaluation and commissioning.
