Tianjin Binhai International Airport, China

Location: Tianjin, China

Status: Completed

Sector: Aviation

Client: Tianjin Binhai Authority

Three masterplan targets were defined for the development of Tianjin Binhai Airport in China: short-term 6 mppa (2015), long-term 20 mppa (2035) and an ultimate capacity of 40 mppa. The development of a suitable master plan is a sensitive balance between preserving the long-term potential of the airport and responding efficiently to the short-term requirements of the airport and airline industry.

About this project

The initial phase of development was the creation of a 6 mppa terminal with a frontal concourse, located perpendicular to the runways, capable of extension sideways to provide additional capacity in later phases. For development phases beyond 20 mppa, a central satellite with automated people mover (APM) linked to the expanded terminal was recommended.

Additional insights

Following the success of the original submission, we were requested by Tianjin Binhai International Airport Authority to design an additional terminal to provide 60,000 sq m, capable of future expansion to 100,000 sq m to meet the anticipated forecast passenger demands.
