Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

The continuing growth of the air cargo volume makes it necessary to take the impact of air freight on airport operations into account in all planning activities which are related to the establishment of new airports on the farther development of existing airports. The consideration problem with respect to cargo developments on the airport is considered and the factors which will influence the location of air cargo centers on the airport property are examined. The elements which affect the size of the cargo area are discussed. Attention is also given to some of the more important factors which will influence the design of the cargo areas in the future.
