HAMAD INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT – NDIA.
The main terminal and three concourses are built with a steel structure using 24,000 tons of structural steel. The total built-up area of 230,000 m² is able to handle an influx of 25 million passengers annually. To better serve their needs, the massive terminal will include 43 passenger boarding bridges, seven check-in islands with 160 check-in counters. In short, the New Doha International Airport in Qatar, with its new terminal and concourses, will serve to open the gates of Qatar to the world.
The design, also that of the highly respected HOK Group, calls for a futuristic, state-of-the-art facility that blends in with and complements Concourses A&B. The total concourse area will be 116,000 m² and will expand the passenger handling capacity of the airport to an astonishing 24,000,000.
