Client Solutions
Aviation
We meld aviation experience, technological innovation and interdisciplinary expertise into a creative, collaborative design process that helps your project take flight.
The Advanced Project Delivery™ method has fashioned the way for the Thornton Tomasetti-LeJeune team on numerous successful large and complex projects. Results have been better coordination and an improved project schedule.
Here's How
Whether it’s a terminal, hangar, support structure, parking garage or transit connection, aviation facilities require highly specialized experience. With more than 900 projects under our belt, we know the ins and outs of aviation design and construction. We relish the challenge of fine-tuning a structure – from scratch or by updating or expanding an older one – to adapt to changing needs, optimize operational efficiency and the traveler experience, and accommodate new technologies.
We apply creative problem-solving and cutting-edge technology to invent new ways of solving difficult engineering problems. The result? Efficient, constructable designs for complex, iconic forms.
Creative structural design is just the beginning. Our holistic approach – one that combines multidisciplinary services such as sustainability and resilience consulting, protective design and security, and façade and construction engineering, and more – streamlines design and construction.
Qualifications
With a portfolio of projects spanning four continents, we bring a global perspective to any local challenge. And not just terminals. We also design the support facilities that are essential to the operation of any airport, such as aircraft maintenance hangars, control towers, ground equipment maintenance facilities, parking garages, cargo handling facilities, and even police stations and airport rescue and firefighting (ARFF) stations.
We can help you with a wide range of in-house services and expertise, including:
- Long-span structures
- Seismic and performance-based design
- Construction engineering services
- Advanced Project Delivery™
- Façade engineering
- Sustainability and resilience analysis, modeling and design
- Vibration, noise and acoustical expertise
- Protective (blast) design and operational security (threat, vulnerability and risk assessment)
