Structure
The new terminal is a four-sided, transparent filigree structure which includes passport, customs, and ticketing facilities. On the land side, solid box structures for building services and restroom facilities were constructed.The primary supporting structure includes V-shaped tubular steel columns supporting I-beam truss girders. Due to poor soil conditions in the port area, the columns are further supported on piles.
In addition to the check-in hall, there is a large service building for baggage handling as well as customs, police, and port personnel. The glazed terminal building roof provides a narrow covering over the entire terminal building but has no structural connection to it.
With the trapezoidal building shape, the architect has additionally provided a terminal wharf.
