Airports & Transit
Terminal buildings, passenger circulation areas, concourses, transit hubs and associated support spaces.
- Architectural
- Structural
- MEPF
- Civil / Site
- Coordination
Terminals combine long-span roofs, large glazed envelopes and some of the densest service zones in any building type. Every discipline is modeled on one shared coordinate system so the roof structure, passenger spaces and building services are resolved together before construction.
What each discipline models
- L.01Architectural
Terminal spaces, passenger circulation, envelope and facade.
- L.02Structural
Long-span roofs, columns, beams and floor systems.
- L.03MEPF
HVAC, electrical, plumbing and fire protection distribution.
- L.04Civil / Site
Apron interfaces, access roads, drainage and utilities, where in scope.
- L.05Coordination
High-density ceiling and service zones and multi-discipline interfaces.
Where these projects go wrong, and how the model prevents it
- C.01
Long-span roof structure crowds the services zone beneath it
ApproachRoof framing and MEPF are modeled on one grid and clash-tested together, so service routes are set around the structure rather than cut through it later.
- C.02
Ceiling voids over concourses carry every trade at once
ApproachService zones are allocated by level and trade, then checked for hanger, access and clearance conflicts before drawings are issued.
- C.03
The building edge meets apron, roads and buried utilities
ApproachWhere civil and site work is in scope, it sits in the same federated model, so connections at the building line are resolved alongside the terminal.
- Service routing through high-density ceiling zones over concourses
- Interfaces between long-span roof structure and building services
- Clearances along passenger circulation routes
- Landside and airside interfaces at the building edge
- Architectural model of terminal spaces, envelope and facade
- Structural model of roof, frame and floor systems
- Coordinated MEPF models for each trade
- Federated model with clash reports and a tracked issue log
Standard modeling capability: up to LOD 400, across every discipline.
LOD & Standards →Process
- 01
Brief & inputs
Drawings, models, standards and templates collected, with scope agreed by discipline and level of detail.
- 02
Discipline modeling
Each discipline modeled on the project's shared coordinate system, to your naming and template standards.
- 03
Federation & clash cycles
Models federated and clash-tested, with issues tracked through resolution with the responsible trades.
- 04
Sign-off & handover
Issue log closed out and coordinated models and drawings handed over, with a change log.
Airports & Transit: common questions
Yes. Scope can be set by zone, level or discipline, and the model is built on the project's shared coordinate system so it federates with the rest of the job.
