The Steel structure business jet terminal (FBO) building is a new type of steel structure airport building. The interior of the entire terminal building usually has diverse layouts, including standard-star-rated lounges, meeting rooms, and so on. EIHE Steel Structure is the supplier and manufacturer of steel structure airport projects. We can provide exclusive architectural solutions for global customers.
The Steel structure business jet terminal (FBO) building refers to a high-end aviation ground facility that uses steel structure as the main load-bearing framework and is specifically designed to serve passengers of business jets (private planes, corporate charter flights) and their related operational needs. Our Chinese steel structure factory can adopt the design + prefabrication model. It is one of the mature manufacturers in China.
Terminal area layout
● Passenger area: Private VIP waiting rooms, business meeting rooms, shower facilities, fast luggage processing lanes.
● Operational Area: FBO operation office, security check passage, customs/exit border inspection/quarantine joint inspection area (if there are international flights).
● Aircraft stand connection: Boarding can be done via the jet bridge or by walking. Vehicles (including VIP shuttles) can directly reach the boarding ladder.
Product advantage
● Seismic resistance: The steel has good ductility (elongation rate > 20%), which can absorb seismic energy; it is lightweight and has a small seismic inertia force; after an earthquake, the deformation can be restored and it is not prone to brittle collapse.
● 100% recyclable: The steel recycling rate is nearly 100%, construction waste is reduced by approximately 90% compared to concrete, and carbon emissions are decreased by 57%.
● Flexible and adaptable: In the future, if it is necessary to modify the interior space or expand the building, the steel structure will be easier to dismantle, modify and reinforce.
● Modern design: The strong toughness of steel can support large cantilevers, curved surfaces, and irregular shapes, creating modern and dynamic architectural designs that are in harmony with the technological aspects of business jets.
How to Select the Structural Form of a Steel structure business jet terminal (FBO) Building
System type
Characteristics
Applicable scenarios
Typical span
Portal frame
The most economical and commonly used light steel structure. It consists of rigid frame columns and inclined beams, with clear force distribution. It is fabricated in the factory and connected with bolts on-site.
Medium and small-sized business jet terminal buildings (single floor, span ≤ 30 meters), such as independent FBO buildings.
15~30m
Planar/space truss
It is composed of rods forming triangular or trapezoidal trusses, enabling larger spans and the lower chord of the truss can support equipment.
The main waiting hall, hangar and the connected part of the terminal building (span 30 - 50 meters).
30~50m
Net frame/net shell structure
It is a spatial grid structure composed of many rods arranged in a certain pattern, with uniform force distribution, high stiffness, and rich shapes (can be made into curved surfaces).
The main building of a large business jet base, which needs to cover irregular planes or pursue shapes such as waves or domes.
40~80m
Truss-suspension structure
It is composed of rigid upper chord beams (steel beams) and flexible lower chord cables and intermediate support rods, which is very efficient with a very small beam height.
Areas requiring extremely thin roofs (such as roof thickness < 0.5 meters) and spans > 40 meters, combined with skylights for lighting.
40~60m
Suspension/suspension cable structure
It utilizes the tension of steel cables to create very lightweight and elegant forms, but the construction is complex.
