Design consultancy for an international airport in 3D BIM
CONTEXT AND CHALLENGES
This is an upcoming international airport being constructed near Jewar in Gautam Buddha Nagar District, and is planned to be India's largest airport.
Once completed, it will be an alternative to Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi by relieving its high and rising traffic load.
The proposed plan is to build a two-runway airport by 2024, and at a future date, to expand it into a 7,200 acres (2,900 ha) six-runway airport. According to the plan, the airport will handle twelve million passengers per annum (MPA) initially and up to 60–120 MPA, after its expansion over a period of 30 years.
In this context, Assystem's teams in India has been commissioned to design and manage the design of Phase I of Terminal 1.
Project Scope

- Design responsibilities: architectural and interior design services including specialist design services like structure, electro mechanical, acoustics, fire engineering and cost consultancy
- Design management services i.e. coordinating, reviewing, and integrating the design from consultants directly appointed by the architect
- Documentation for EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction)
- Concept design
- Scheme design
- Over a surface of 105’000 m²
Client benefits
