Woolpert has designed two packages that provide aircraft apron and utility improvements, as well as the phased construction of a new terminal shell between existing Concourses B and C. This project is one of several that will form the North Terminal, a $2.6 billion hub for American Airlines at Miami International Airport. The initial package included underground utilities with temporary aircraft pavement, selective building demolition, utility relocations, and temporary life safety corridors, all of which cleared the way for demolition of the existing building.
The second package consists of constructing a four-story terminal shell structure featuring a weather-tight enclosure, vertical and horizontal transportation systems, base building MEP systems, an Automatic People Mover guideway, right-of-way clearance for a baggage handling system, and coordination with more than forty adjacent projects.
