Brisbane International Terminal

Brisbane International Terminal: structural steel casebook

The four-storey, steel-framed Brisbane International Terminal building was opened in September 1995, four months ahead of the 24-month schedule and several million dollars below budget. 

Civil & Civic was the project manager for design and construction for the client Federal Airports Corporation (FAC) , the developer, owner and operator of the terminal. Structural steel framing was chosen because it best met the requirements of the project brief – i.e. cost efficient, fast to construct, easily extended and able to be readily altered during construction.
