They installed much of the fuel piping using directional boring, while they had several hundred feet of open cut ditch. Engineering Metalworks‘ manufacturing facility was utilized to prefabricate piping racks throughout the facility. Our manufacturing teams prefabricated modular toilet units and delivered them onto site with complete in-wall assemblies. Many of the large restrooms include 20+ individual toilet stalls, a significant improvement over the old KCI terminal.Įarly in the project, our teams installed about 1 mile of new underground jet fuel piping to serve the new terminal and temporarily serve the two existing terminals. The Central Heating and Cooling plant houses four 800-ton chillers in a series-counterflow arrangement for increased energy efficiency. The cooling towers include plume abatement technology to minimize plume during airport operations. The heating plant is completely electric, enhancing sustainability efforts. 859,000 lbs of sheet metal used on this project.49,000 ft of water piping for sinks, toilets, and other plumbing fixtures.Over 430 VAV terminal units serve individual spaces to keep passengers comfortable. The new terminal is heated and cooled by 31 main air handling units (AHUs) that distribute air throughout. Ventilation air is brought in through dedicated energy recovery units that add to the project’s LEED Gold certification. Starting with 39 gates, with the ability to expand to 50, the project occupies over 1 million square feet. Engineering Construction helmed the design-build mechanical duties on the largest single infrastructure project in Kansas City’s history: Kansas City International Airport’s new terminal and parking structure.
