He has recently started writing about the architectural projects that catch his imagination. New Passenger Terminal at Franjo Tudman International Airport Zagreb in Croatia by Kincl d.o.o.June 11th, 2017 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: Kincl d.o.o. In 2008, international competition jury awarded first prize and commission to the entry designed by Croatian authors-architects Branko Kincl, Velimir Neidhardt and Jure Radić. The French concessionaire started building in 2013 executing the design delivered by authors-architects and design companies IGH projektiranje d.o.o., Kincl d.o.o., Neidhardt arhitekti d.o.o. The new terminal complex opened in March 2017 as the 1st phase construction of 65.000 m2 serves up to 5 million passengers a year. At the end of 30 year concession 2nd phase additions will serve 8 million passengers.  Image Courtesy © Josip Škof

The traffic functions between two traffic roundabouts. They serve as connecting points to viaduct ramps leading to or from the departure level curb at 10.20 m above the ground. Main public levels at landside of the terminal, the ground and upper departure level are connected by outdoor escalators and elevators and by interior sets of elevators and stairs within circulation cores.

A dynamic roof envelope, which unwraps itself to levitate above the terminal hall generates the free dynamics of the structural net – an iconic expression of the landscape and its relief features as original attributions to the generated architectural form. The envelope structure is a spatial truss curved in two directions deploying tens of thousands prefabricated steel tubes and nodes based on the triangular off grid module.

Above, dynamic space frame structure forms the top of the departure hall borne by the closed-umbrella-like pillars on the floor plan grid of 28.80 x 43.20 m. The pier design allows for the flexibility that is necessary to sustain the expected increase of air traffic in the future.

All other procedures support an ecologically sustainable concept of the completed design.
