CONTEXT & ISSUES
The consortium Nuevo Pudahuael (Aéroports de Paris, Vinci Airports and Astaldi) won in February 2015 the tender launched by the Chilean government on the basis of a referential project for the concession and development of Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport in Santiago, one of the most dynamic regional hubs in Latin America.
The project consists of the refurbishment and expansion of existing facilities (Terminal 1 building and airport infrastructures) and the construction of a new Terminal 2 bringing the total capacity to 30 Mpax.
We were appointed by VCGP, within their EPC contract, to develop the airside infrastructures package, the architectural and special airport systems design studies for T1 & T2, as well as for the two covered carpark buildings.
We developed the referential project, using exclusively BIM to deliver a detailed architectural design.
The project received the “BIM d’argent” award in 2017.
- Architectural design performed entirely in BIM up to a detailed design level for the new passenger terminal T2 and for the refurbishment and expansion of the passenger terminal T1 ( T1 & T2 30 Mpax in 2030) and the two covered car parking buildings.
- Design studies of special airport systems and equipment in BIM (BHS, PBB, VDGS, CUTE, BRS, GMS, FIDS, BIDS, AODB) up to a detailed design level.
- Design studies and development of airside infrastructures packages up to a detailed design level. Technical expertise for the master plan update and construction phasing plans.
