Airport Computation

The document provides calculations for facility space requirements at an airport, including counters, queues, lobbies, boarding areas, claims areas, and parking, based on passenger volume formulas and standards from sources like JICA and ICAO. Peak hour passenger volumes are estimated at 13,778 domestic and 11,253 international passengers, for a total of 25,193. Based on these volumes and processing times, the number of required check-in counters, customs booths, and other facilities is calculated.

Parking Spaces; from A Handbook in Facilities Planning and Design in the Philippines 1st
Draft by Rey S. Gabitan
Based on the practice in previous projects in the Philippines, a value of 0.5 slots per peak hour
passenger is used. This includes employees, greeters and visitors.
0.50 x 25,193 = 12,596.50 or 12,597 parking slots
Parking Buildings will accommodate 30% of total parking slots.
0.30 x 12,597 = 3,779.1 or 3,780 parking slots

Airport Passenger Terminal Planning and Design Guidebook suggests that 25%30% of
total parking space designated for short term parking.
0.3 x 12,597 = 3,779.1 or 3,780 short-term parking slots
And a total of 8,817 long-term parking slots
FAA Advisory Circular 150/5360-13 recommends 31.5 to 36 sq.m. should be provided for each
parked vehicle. This unit space includes parking space, driveways, sidewalks, green areas and
islands within a car park.
12,597 x 35 sqm = 440,877.50 sqm (parking area)
The terminals’ parking building will adopt 90 degree/ perpendicular parking space design.

According to the National Building Code of the Philippines (PD 1096) Section 707, the size
of an average automobile (car) must be computed at 2.50 meters by 5.00 meters for
perpendicular parking.
(2.50 x 5.00) 3,780 = 47,250 sqm (parking area)

According to IRR of BP 344 Accessibility Law Section 4.1 Accessible Parking Slot
Requirement, 1001 – over parking slots must have a required number of accessible parking
slots of 20 + (1 for each 100 or a fraction thereof over 1000).
20 + (1 for each 100) = 135.97 or 136 parking slots
NMIA Peak Passenger Flow

Domestic Passenger Peak Hour Flow


The formula from Ashford and Wright (1992) is used to get the peak hour flow. The formula
contains of four steps:
1. Average monthly passengers = 0.08417 x annual passenger flow
Average monthly passengers = 0.08417 x 43,918,000 = 3696578.06
Average monthly passengers = 3,696,578 passengers
2. Average daily passengers = 0.03226 x average monthly flow
Average daily passengers = 0.03226 x 3,696,578 = 119251.60628
Average daily passengers = 119,251 passengers
3. Peak day flow = 1.26 x average daily flow
Peak day flow = 1.26 x 119,251 = 150256.26
Peak day flow = 150,256 passengers
4. Peak hour flow = 0.0917 x peak daily flow
Peak hour flow = 0.0917 x 150,256 = 13778.4752
Peak hour flow = 13,778 passengers

International Passenger Peak Hour Flow


The formula from Ashford and Wright (1992) is used to get the peak hour flow. The formula
contains of four steps:
1. Average monthly passengers = 0.08417 x annual passenger flow
Average monthly passengers = 0.08417 x 35,871,000 = 3019262.07
Average monthly passengers = 3,019,262 passengers
2. Average daily passengers = 0.03226 x average monthly flow
Average daily passengers = 0.03226 x 3,019,262 = 97401.3921
Average daily passengers = 97,401 passengers
3. Peak day flow = 1.26 x average daily flow
Peak day flow = 1.26 x 974,014 = 122725.26
Peak day flow = 122,725 passengers
4. Peak hour flow = 0.0917 x peak daily flow
Peak hour flow = 0.0917 x 122,725 = 11253.8825
Peak hour flow = 11,253 passengers

Total Passenger Peak Hour Flow


The formula from Ashford and Wright (1992) is used to get the peak hour flow. The formula
contains of four steps:
1. Average monthly passengers = 0.08417 x annual passenger flow
Average monthly passengers = 0.08417 x 79,789,000 = 6,758,926.19
Average monthly passengers = 6,758,926 passengers
2. Average daily passengers = 0.03226 x average monthly flow
Average daily passengers = 0.03226 x 6,758,926 = 218,042.95276
Average daily passengers = 218,043 passengers
3. Peak day flow = 1.26 x average daily flow
Peak day flow = 1.26 x 218,043 = 274734.18
Peak day flow = 274,734 passengers
4. Peak hour flow = 0.0917 x peak daily flow
Peak hour flow = 0.0917 x 274,734 = 25193.1078
Peak hour flow = 25,193 passengers
