DESIGN PRINCIPLES FOR DECENTRALIZED TERMINALS

The development of readily manageable design methods for the facilities used to handle passenger traffic between the curbside and the aircraft, so that all these facilities can be matched to one another's efficiency, was the object of a study whose main results are summarized below. The article also furnishes architects with functional and design principles for use as instruments in arriving at convincing layouts. The considerations underlying the remarks presented here produced good results when applied to the planning of Hannover's new terminal.
