MIA TRACT ONE

MIA - Tract One Apron Project

The Tract One Area is located within the Northside of the Miami International Airport, and provides aircrafts with a continuous apron, which consists of aircraft moving areas and designated parking positions. BND Engineers, Inc. (BND) provided the Apron/ Pavement, engineering planning design and permitting of utility corridors including, drainage/stormwater, and water/sewer. The project area had a history of flooding which disrupted aircraft and vehicular traffic as well as tenant operations due to improper grading and lack of a proper stormwater/drainage system. BND was also responsible for providing Bid and Award, and Construction Management Services for the project.

Comprised of:

Airside Drainage Inlets and Manholes.
Reinforced concrete drainage pipes (RCP) varying in sizes from 24 to 60 inches.
Exfiltration trenches and drainage inlets for the existing landside parking lot.
Airside pollution control system Grit Chambers.
Ductile iron (DI) pipes as part of the Pollution Control System.
Drainage Oil Water Separators (OWS), for Pollution Control.
Drainage connection structures to existing 12 foot by 7 foot and 96 inch box culvert.

The proposed stormwater and pollution control system were designed using the stormwater management modeling software XP- SWMM. XP-SWMM is a link-node model that performs Hydrology, Hydraulics and Quality Analysis of Stormwater Systems. The software package utilizes sophisticated graphical tools together with Geographical Information System (GIS) and CADD.
