Dear  Commissioner  DeMent:  Chicago-  O'Hare  International  Airport 

Engineering  Report  -  First  Stage 
Development  Program 

Pursuant  to  the  terms  of  our  agreement  dated  March  1,  1957,  we  are  presenting  here- 
with our  Engineering  Report  covering  the  first  stage  development  of  facilities  at  O'Hare 
Airport.    This  report  develops  engineering  and  cost  data  required  to  support  the  sale  of 
revenue  bonds  to  provide  funds  for  construction  of  these  facilities. 

Included  in  the  report,  in  addition  to  a  description,  outline  specification  and  cost 
estimate  for  each  major  item  of  construction,  are  plan  and  perspective  drawings  which 
delineate  the  location,  character  and  extent  of  the  proposed  facilities. 

In  general,  the  development  program  Is  planned  to  meet  traffic  estimates  for  the  year 
1965.  Airline  spaces  provided  in  the  terminal  buildings  and  cargo  buildings  correspond 
directly  to  written  requests  from  the  airlines.  Sites  for  hangars  in  the  Hangar  Area  also 
correspond  to  airline  requests.  Spaces  in  the  terminal  buildings  reserved  for  concessions, 
as  well  as  paid  parking  facilities  and  sites  for  an  automobile  service  station,  an  air  mail 
post  office,  flight  kitchens,  rent-a-car  service  facilities,  and  a  motel  are  based  on  the 
recommendations  of  Landrum  and  Brown,  airport  consultants  of  Cincinnati,  Ohio. 

The  design  of  the  fueling  system,  together  with  the  cost  estimates  for  this  facility,  were 
prepared  by  James  P.  O'Donnell,  fueling  consultant  of  New  York  City,  in  accordance 
with  recommendations  from  the  Airline  Technical  Committee. 

Cost  estimates  for  construction  of  all  of  the  proposed  facilities  are  based  on  current  unit 
prices  for  the  work  involved,  adjusted  In  several  cases  for  increases  anticipated  prior         ^ 
to  the  estimated  date  of  construction.    No  costs  have  been  included  for  land  acquisition  l 
since  all  of  the  land  required  for  the  proposed  construction  has  already  been  acquired  by 
the  City  and  acquisition  costs  of  the  additional  land  required  to  complete  the  approved 
airport  boundary  have  been  authorized  from  existing  general  obligation  bond  funds  of 
the  City  of  Chicago.

The  proposed  development  program  has  been  planned  in  close  cooperation  with  our 
consultants,  the  Airline  Technical  Committee,  the  Technical  Development  Center 
of  the  Civil  Aeronautics  Administration  and  the  Bureau  of  Aviation  of  the  City  of 
Chicago. 


We  believe  that  the  first  stage  development  program  as  outlined  in  this  report  can   | 
be  completed  and  placed  in  operation  within  33  months  from  the  date  that  funds       i|| 


are  available  from  the  revenue  bond  issue.

I        INTRODUCTION 


I.  INTRODUCTION 

History:    O'Hare  Airport,   as  it  exists  today,   had  its  beginning  in  planning 
studies  initiated  in  the  early  1940's  by  several  civic  organizations.     In  1945  the 
City  Council  approved  the  site  recommended  by  the  Airport  Site  Selection  Board. 
This  site  was  the  Douglas  Airport  constructed  by  the  Federal  Government  during 
World  War  II  in  connection  with  an  aircraft  factory  leased  to  the  Douglas  Aircraft 
Company. 

In  1946  the  War  Assets  Corporation,  having  declared  the  Douglas  Airport 
as  surplus,  gave  the  City  a  quit-claim  deed  to  1,080  acres  of  the  property.     Planning 
was  then  begun  to  develop  the  site  as  an  airport  for  civil  aviation. 

In  May  1955,   the  City  reached  agreement  with  17  airlines  for  landing  and 
rental  fees  at  the  airport.    The  City  Council  approved  this  agreement  in  October  of 
that  year  and  in  the  same  month  the  airport  was  opened  for  commercial  use. 

By  this  time  the  City  had  renamed  the  airport  O'Hare,   had  acquired  additional 
land  and  had  constructed  several  improvements.    These  include  a  new  runway,  a  taxi- 
way,  a  segment  of  a  proposed  terminal  building,  a  control  tower,  an  aircraft  parking 
apron,  a  heating  plant  and  an  automobile  parking  lot.     Before  the  construction  of 
the  new  runway  a  five  mile  section  of  Chicago  and  Northwestern  Railroad  track  was 
relocated  to  pass  around  the  western  boundary  of  the  airport. 

In  March  1956,  the  City  Council  annexed  O'Hare  Airport  and  a  highway  corri- 
dor connecting  it  with  the  City  proper.  Simultaneously  agreement  was  reached  between  City, 


-2- 


County  and  State  to  construct  the  Northwest  Expressway,  a  free  facility,   from  the 
Chicago  Loop  to  the  boundary  of  the  airport.    This  expressway  is  currently  under 
construction  and  is  expected  to  be  completed  by  mid  1960.     It  will  connect  with  the 
tollway  and  expressway  system  serving  the  Metropolitan  Area  as  shown  in  the  ac- 
companying map. 

Airline  traffic  at  O  Hare  has  increased  steadily  since  it  was  opened.  How- 
ever, considering  the  increasing  congestion  at  Midway  Airport  traffic  at  O 'Hare  has 
not  been  as  heavy  as  was  expected. 

The  reasons  that  the  airlines  have  delayed  in  moving  more  of  their, 
operations  to  O1  Hare  are  principally  economic.    The  airlines  have  large  invest- 
ments in  facilities  at  Midway  and  at  present  this  airport  is  more  accessible  to  the 
Chicago  Loop.    The  airlines,   therefore,   have  retained  their  principal  flights  at 
Midway  and  have  been  slow  to  develop    an  integrated  pattern  of  interconnecting 
flights  at  O'Hare. 

This  situation,   however,   is  certain  to  be  reversed  in  the  near  future.    The 
reason  for  this  is  clear:     large  turbo-jet  aircraft  can  operate  only  at  O'Hare  in 
Chicago.    The  main  trunk  air'ines  beginning  in  1956  have  placed  substantial  orders 
for  new  large  turbo-jet  transports.     Deliveries  of  these  planes  commenced  in 
August  1958  and  are  scheduled  for  service  in  ever-increasing  amounts  beginning  in 
January  1959.    These  aircraft  cannot  operate  at  Midway  because  of  the  limited  run- 
way lengths  available  and,  since  it  is  not  economically  feasible  to  extend  runways 
in  this  built-up  area  of  the  City,  these  aircraft  must  use  O'Hare  Airport  where  the 
runways  are  longer. 


-3- 


Once  the  main  turbo-jet  flights  are  operating  at  O'Hare  the  feeder  lines 
also  must  move  substantial  supporting  schedules  to  interconnect  with  these  main 
trunk  line  flights. 

The  change  to  be  caused  by  the  coming  of  turbo-jet  aircraft  became  clearly 
apparent  in  1957  and  the  airlines  indicated  a  willingness  to  support  a  revenue  bond 
issue  which  would  finance  the  necessary  development  of  O'Hare  Airport  for  their  use. 

In  March  of  1957,  the  City  appointed  the  architectural-engineering  firm  of 
Naess  &  Murphy  to  review  previous  plans  for  O'Hare  development  in  view  of  changes 
in  airline  planning . 

During  the  last  eighteen  months,   the  architects-engineers  and  their  consultants, 
Landrum  and  Brown  on  airport  planning  and  James  P.  O'Donnell  on  fuel  storage  and 
distribution,   have  carried  foreword  this  study  in  close  cooperation  with  the  Bureau  of 
Aviation  of  the  City  of  Chicago,   the  Technical  Development  Center  of  the  Civil 
Aeronautics  Administration,  and  the  Airline  Technical  Committee. 

Early  in  the  course  of  this  study  Landrum  and  Brown  made  a  statistical  analysis 
of  the  traffic  to  be  expected  at  O'Hare  through  the  year  1970.     From  these  estimates 
preliminary  forecasts  were  established  for  the  facilities  that  would  be  required. 

After  extensive  study  the  architects-engineers  and  their  consultants  concluded 
that  the  then  existing  master  plan  for  O'Hare  should  be  modified  to  better  meet  the 
conditions  of  jet  age  transportation. 


-4- 


Several  different  modified  plans  were  prepared  and  discussed  with  the  Airline 
Technical  Committee  and  with  City  officials.     In  March  1958,  agreement  was  reached 
on  a  new  plan  and  formal  approval  was  indicated  to  the  City  by  the  Airline  Top 
Committee. 

An  artist's  rendering  of  this  plan  depicting  the  airport  at  its  ultimate  stage  of 
development  is  shown  in  the  accompanying  photograph.    This  plan  has  served  as  the 
basis  for  all  of  the  subsequent  planning  which  has  followed  and,   except  for  minor  I 

changes,  remains  the  basic  plan  for  the  airport. 

Following  the  adoption  of  this  new  plan  by  the  City  and  the  airlines,  attention 
was  devoted  to  the  matter  of  staging  construction  to  best  meet  airline  needs  and  finan- 
cial capabilities. 

Preliminary  cost  estimates  of  construction  prepared  in  March,  at  the  time  the         ■> 
general  plan  was  approved,  were  reviewed  by  the  airlines  with  the  architects-engineers. 
It  was  decided  to  defer  some  items  until  a  later  stage  of  construction  and  to  reduce  the 

r^ 

scope  of  others  in  an  effort  to  bring  initial  costs  within  acceptable  limits. 

Concurrently  with  these  decisions  the  airlines  took  up  the  matter  of  allocating 
gate  loading  positions  along  the  proposed  concourse.     It  was  necessary  to  resolve  this 
matter  before  the  airlines  could  determine  their  requirements  for  terminal  building 
space  and  the  architects  could  proceed  with  the  development  of  the  terminal  building 
plans. 

The  gate  allocations  were  decided  by  the  Airline  Top  Committee  in  May  and 
by  the  middle  of  June  the  architects-engineers  had  received  space  requirement 


figures  from  most  of  the  domestic  airlines.    At  this  point  the  architects-engineers 
began  working  with  the  airlines,  either  individually  or  in  small  related  groups,   in 
an  effort  to  accommodate  their  requirements  into  plans  for  the  buildings.    This  proved 
to  be  a  difficult  task  because  of  considerable  differences  in  requirements  and  in  pro- 
posed methods  of  operation. 

In  addition  to  airline  spaces  which  were  closely  tailored  to  airline  needs,   the 
architects-engineers  reserved  other  spaces  for  concessions  and  the  needs  of  the  general 
public.    These  spaces  were  based  on  the  recommendations  of  Landrum  and  Brown  which 
were  developed  from  their  extensive  study  of  concessions  and  concession  revenues  at 
other  major  airports. 

Concurrently  with  this  detail  planning,  the  fuel  consultant,   James  P.  O'Donnell, 
prepared  alternate  systems  for  fuel  storage  and  distribution.    These  were  reviewed  by 
the  Airline  Technical  Committee  and  their  recommendations  were  subsequently  adopted 
by  the  Airline  Top  Committee. 

I  By  the  end  of  September  1958,   the  major  planning  difficulties  were  resolved 

and  the  architects-engineers  were  able  to  prepare  preliminary  drafts  of  the  airline 
lease  exhibits  and  of  the  Engineering  Report. 

These  were  circulated  to  City  officials,  the  Airline  Technical  Committee  and 
the  feasibility  engineers  for  their  final  review  during  the  first  week  in  October.    The 
Engineering  Report  presented  herewith  has  been  modified  slightly  to  reflect  final 
recommendations  and  space  requirement  requests.

II.  GENERAL  DESCRIPTION  OF  THE  FIRST  STAGE  PROGRAM 

The  first  stage  development  program  for  O'Hare  Airport  is  designed  to  provide 
Chicago  with  greatly  expanded  airport  facilities  which  will  accommodate  the  new  com- 
mercial jet  airliners  and  the  expanded  volumes  of  passengers  which  they  are  expected 
to  carry. 

Planning  has  been  based  on  meeting  needs  for  projected  traffic  as  estimated  by 
Landrum  and  Brown,  airport  consultants.    The  first  stage  development  program  has 
generally  been  based  on  meeting  the  traffic  forecasts  for  the  year  1965,  at  which  time 
it  is  estimated  there  will  be  over  five  million  passengers  enplaned  at  O'Hare  Airport. 

TERMINAL  AREA 


Several  different  areas  of  the  airport  are  scheduled  either  for  expansion  or  en- 
tirely new  development.    The  principal  area  of  expansion  will  be  the  terminal  area 
at  the  approximate  center  of  the  airport.    An  artist's  rendering  showing  how  this  area 
will  appear  at  the  completion  of  first  stage  development  is  shown  in  the  accompanying 
photograph.    Additional  sketches  are  also  included  which  show  close-up  views  of  this 
area  as  well  as  some  of  the  other  areas  scheduled  to  be  developed. 

It  is  planned  to  increase  terminal  facilities  with  the  addition  of  two  new  unit 
terminal  buildings  with  attendant  concourses  for  parking  aircraft.    The  present  terminal 
building  will  be  converted  into  an  international  arrivals  and  departure  building  with 
facilities  for  customs  and  immigration  inspection.

II.  GENERAL  DESCRIPTION  OF  THE  FIRST  STAGE  PROGRAM 

The  first  stage  development  program  for  O'Hare  Airport  is  designed  to  provide 
Chicago  with  greatly  expanded  airport  facilities  which  will  accommodate  the  new  com- 
mercial jet  airliners  and  the  expanded  volumes  of  passengers  which  they  are  expected 
to  carry. 

"Planning  has  been  based  on  meeting  needs  for  projected  traffic  as  estimated  by 
Landrum  and  Brown,  airport  consultants.    The  first  stage  development  program  has 
generally  been  based  on  meeting  the  traffic  forecasts  for  the  year  1965,  at  which  time 
it  is  estimated  there  will  be  over  five  million  passengers  enplaned  at  O'Hare  Airport. 

TERMINAL  AREA 


Several  different  areas  of  the  airport  are  scheduled  either  for  expansion  or  en- 
tirely new  development.    The  principal  area  of  expansion  will  be  the  terminal  area 
at  the  approximate  center  of  the  airport.    An  artist's  rendering  showing  how  this  area 
will  appear  at  the  completion  of  first  stage  development  is  shown  in  the  accompanying 
photograph.    Additional  sketches  are  also  included  which  show  close-up  views  of  this 
area  as  well  as  some  of  the  other  areas  scheduled  to  be  developed. 

It  is  planned  to  increase  terminal  facilities  with  the  addition  of  two  new  unit 
terminal  buildings  with  attendant  concourses  for  parking  aircraft.    The  present  terminal 
building  will  be  converted  into  an  international  arrivals  and  departure  building  with 
facilities  for  customs  and  immigration  inspection. 


-8- 


The  terminal  buildings  will  have  adequate  space  to  accommodate  the  expected 
volumes  of  passengers  without  overcrowding.     In  addition  to  large  areas  being  provided 
for  the  airlines  and  the  public,  there  will  also  be  corresponding  provisions  made  for 
concessions  which  will  serve  the  public  and  generate  income  for  this  project. 

Areas  assigned  to  airlines  are  based  on  their  written  requests  for  leased  space. 
Areas  assigned  to  concessions  are  based  on  the  recommendations  of  Landrum  and  Brown, 
airport  consultants.    Both  of  these  areas  are  delineated  on  the  exhibits  in  the  Appendix. 

One  of  the  principal  concessions  is  the  main  restaurant  which  will  be  housed 
in  a  separate  building  connecting  the  two  new  unit  terminals,  and  which  will  overlook 
the  activity  on  the  aircraft  parking  ramps. 

The  greatly  expanded  terminal  area  will  be  served  by  an  elevated  roadway  which 
will  separate  the  large  volume  of  inbound  and  outbound  ground  vehicles  which  are  ex- 
pected to  come  from  Chicago  via  the  new  Northwest  Expressway  which  is  scheduled 
for  completion  by  mid-1960  and  the  Northern  Illinois  Tollways  which  are  scheduled 
to  be  fully  completed  by  January,    1959. 

To  accommodate  the  greatly  increased  number  of  automobiles  expected,a  large 
parking  lot  is  planned  for  the  center  of  the  terminal  area  which  will  accommodate 
5,700  automobiles. 

On  the  apron  side  of  the  terminal  area  sufficient  space  is  being  provided  along 
both  sides  of  the  passenger  concourse  to  park  over  sixty  aircraft.    These  aircraft  park- 
ing positions  will  be  served  by  an  underground  hydrant  fueling  system  which  will  be 
designed  to  transport  large  volumes  of  jet  fuel  into  the  aircraft  in  a  minimum  time. 
Several  of  the  airlines  contemplate  the  installation  of  motorized  loading  bridges  which 


-9- 


will  enable  passengers  to  be  loaded  and  unloaded  directly  from  second  level  departure 
rooms  along  the  elevated  concourses  without  interferring  with  operations  on  the  parking 
apron . 

In  addition  to  greatly  expanded  facilities  for  the  terminal  area  the  first  stage 
development  program  also  calls  for  establishing  new  facilities  in  other  areas.  These 
include  the  hangar,  cargo,  tank  farm  and  miscellaneous  service  areas. 

HANGAR  AREA 


A  large  tract  of  land  in  the  northwest  section  of  the  airport  has  been  reserved 
for  hangar  facilities.     Nine  hangars  are  planned  in  the  first  stage  with  additional 
space  available  for  other  hangars  in  the  future.     Plans  are  also  being  made  to  extend 
sewer,  water  and  power  facilities  into  this  area  plus  a  taxiway  and  a  service  roadway. 
The  entire  area  is  to  be  graded  and  ditches  provided  to  drain  the  area.     Individual 
hangars  will  be  provided  with  their  own  water  reservoirs  to  afford  adequate  fire  pro- 
tection in  the  area  without  drawing  on  the  main  airport  supply  for  emergencies. 

CARGO  AREA 


A  Cargo  Area  located  east  of  the  terminal  area  will  provide  joint  cargo  facilities 
for  most  of  the  domestic  airlines  plus  the  Railway  Express  Agency.    Approximately  92, 160 
sq.  ft.  of  joint  cargo  space  will  be  provided  with  apron  for  parking  ten  aircraft.    Ad- 
ditional separate  facilities  amounting  to  36,000  square  feet  of  warehouse  and  apron  for 
parking  six  aircraft  will  be  provided  for  an  all-cargo  air  carrier. 

Sites  have  also  been  reserved  in  the  area  for  flight  kitchens  and  a  post  office 
which  are  expected  to  be  constructed  by  others  during  the  first  stage  of  construction. 


-10- 


Water,  sewers,  and  roads,  however,  will  be  provided  under  the  bond  issue.    The  Public 
Service  Co.  Division  of  Commonwealth  Edison  Company  will  provide  power  facilities 
and  gas  facilities  will  be  provided  by  either  the  Northern  Illinois  Gas  Company  or  the 
Peoples  Gas  Light  and  Coke  Company. 

TANK  FARM  AREA 

A  tank  farm  area  will  be  established  in  the  northwest  corner  of  the  airport 
beyond  the  hangar  area.     Facilities  will  be  provided  at  this  location  for  unloading  and 
storing  fuel.     These  include  facilities  for  receiving  fuel  by  pipe  line,  railroad  tank  car 
and  truck.     The  tank  farm  will  be  connected  to  satellite  storage  facilities  located 
around  the  terminal  apron  and  thence  to  the  hydrants  at  the  aircraft  parking  positions 
by  a  system  of  underground  pipe  lines. 

SERVICE  AREAS 


The  principal  airport  service  facilities  will  be  provided  in  three  separate  areas 
on  the  airport.  A  large  new  heating  and  refrigeration  plant  will  be  provided  adjacent 
to  the  terminal  area  near  the  main  entrance  road.  A  fire  station  will  be  constructed  in 
an  area  just  beyond  the  terminal  aircraft  parking  apron  adjacent  to  the  truck  fill  stand 
area.  An  airport  maintenance  building  will  be  provided  at  the  eastern  end  of  the 
Cargo  Area. 

RUNWAYS,  TAXIWAYS  AND  UTILTIES 

In  addition  to  these  developed  areas,  provision  is  also  being  made  to  improve 
the  present  runway  and  taxiway  system  to  accommodate  jet  traffic.    Shoulders  are 


being  added  to  some  taxiways  to  protect  outboard  jet  engines  on  the  new  jet  aircraft. 
Taxiways  and  runways  will  be  lengthened  and  strengthened  with  overlays  as  required. 
The  airfield  lighting  system  will  also  be  improved. 

Some  of  this  work  has  already  been  completed  or  is  currently  under  construction. 
Runway  9C-27C  has  been  lengthened  and  overlayed.    Runway  14R-32L  is  currently 
being  lengthened  and  strengthened.     It  is  scheduled  to  be  returned  to  service  in  Dec- 
ember,   1958. 

The  master  plan  for  the  airport  also  makes  provision  for  future  additional  runways 
which  will  be  built  as  required  during  later  stages  of  airport  development. 

In  addition  to  the  above,  the  utility  systems  are  to  be  greatly  expanded.  The 
overall  drainage  system  for  the  airport  is  also  to  be  improved  and  expanded  in  the  first 
stage  of  construction. 

Sites  are  also  being  provided  for  a  large  motel,  an  automobile  service  station 
and  a  parking  area  and  service  center  for  rent-a-cars.     It  is  anticipated  that  these  facil- 
ities will  be  built  in  the  first  stage,   financed  with  private  funds.     Negotiations  are 
planned  by  the  City  to  this  effect  after  the  bonds  have  been  sold. 

A  list  of  the  major  items  of  airport  construction  to  be  undertaken  in  the  first 
stage,   together  with  a  general  description,  outline  specification  and  cost  estimate  for 
each,   follows  in  the  next  section  of  this  report.

A.     RUNWAYS  AND  TAXIWAYS: 

1  .      Taxiways  Serving  the  Cargo  Area 

a.  Description:    A  system  of  taxiways  will  be  provided  to  serve  the  Cargo 
Area.    The  principal  taxiway  of  this  sytem  is  an  east  -  west  extension 
of  the  outer  circular  taxiway  from  the  point  where  it  completes  a 
circuit  of  the  Terminal  Area  apron.    This  taxiway  passes  along  the 
south  side  of  the  Cargo  Area  and  connects  to  two  north  -  south  taxi- 
ways which  merge  with  the  aircraft  parking  aprons  serving  the  two 
joint  airline  cargo  buildings.    The  easternmost  of  these  two  taxiways 
will  also  serve  the  area  allotted  to  The  Flying  Tiger  Line  for  a  cargo 
facility. 

A  short  taxiway  connecting  the  westernmost  of  the  two  north  -  south 
taxiways  with  the  Terminal  Area  apron  completes  the  Cargo  Area 
taxiway  system. 

b.  Outline  Specification:    Taxiways  will  be  constructed  of  concrete  15" 
thick  and  75  feet  wide  on  compacted  granular  sub-base.    Total 
design  thickness  shall  be  sufficient  to  support  100,000  pound 
single  wheel  loads  according  to  C.A.A.  standards  for  soil 
conditions  encountered.     Taxiway  grades  shall  not  exceed  1-1/2%. 
Stabilized  shoulders  of  3"  of  bituminous  concrete  on  compacted 
granular  sub-base  shall  be  installed  on  both  sides  of  the  taxiway 
except  on  the  side  where  the  taxiway  merges  with  the  cargo  aprons. 
These  shoulders  shall  be  25  feet  wide  and  shall  be  designed  to

support  12,000  pound  wheel  loads.    Perimeter  taxiway  lighting  shall 
also  be  installed  on  both  sides  of  the  taxiways,  except  where  the  taxi- 
way  merges  with  the  cargo  apron. 

c.      Cost  Estimate  $986,000. 

2.      Improvements  to  Runway  14R-32L 

a.      Description:     In  September  of  1958  the  City  of  Chicago  awarded  contracts 
for  certain  improvements  and  extensions  to  existing  Runway  14R-32L. 
These  improvements  include  an  extension  of  the  parallel  taxiway  to  the 
northwest  end  of  the  runway,  a  warm-up  pad  at  both  ends  of  the  runway, 
an  extension  of  the  runway  at  the  southeast  end  to  make  a  total  runway 
length  of  8,838  feet,  an  overlay  of  the  runway  with  concrete  to  strengthen 
It  for  jet  traffic  and  new  runway  lighting.    This  work  is  being  financed 
from  funds  already  appropriated  by  the  City  of  Chicago,   State  of  Illinois 
and  the  United  States  Government.    This  work  is  scheduled  for  completion 
by  December  15,   1958. 

Certain  of  the  new  lighting  work,  however,   is  ineligible  for  Federal  or 
State  aid  and  must  be  included  in  the  bond  Issue  financing.    This  amount 
is  estimated  to  be  $83,000. 

In  addition  another  improvement  is  considered  essential  for  safety.  This 
involves  elimination  of  the  drainage  ditch  for  250  feet  on  either  side  of 
the  runway  at  the  northwest  end.  It  is  proposed  to  remedy  this  situation 
by  filling  the  ditch  for  500  feet  and  carry  the  drainage  water  under- 


-15- 


ground  in  pipes.    This  is  estimated  to  cost  $250,000. 
b.     Cost  Estimate  $333,000. 

3.  Taxiway  to  Hangar  Area: 

a.  Description:  A  taxiway  is  planned  which  will  provide  airplane  access 
to  the  lots  in  the  Hangar  Area.  This  taxiway  will  start  at  the  existing 
taxiway  along  the  southeast  edge  of  the  Hangar  Area  and  extend  through 

the  center  of  this  area  and  connect  to  the  parallel  taxiway  to  Runway  14R-32L. 

b.  Outline  Specification:    (See  taxiway  specification  under  Item  A-l  above) 

c.  Cost  Estimate  $1,492,000. 

4.  New  Outer  Circular  Taxiway  and  Connecting  Taxiways  Around  the  Terminal 
Complex: 

a.  Description:     It  is  planned  to  extend  the  present  outer  circular  taxiway 
around  the  new  terminal  area  parking  apron.    This  taxiway  will  connect 
to  the  terminal  apron  with  short  connecting  taxiways  at  regular  intervals 
and  will  also  connect  to  a  new  taxiway  serving  the  Cargo  Area.    The 
outer  edge  of  the  terminal  apron  will  serve  aircraft  taxiing  in  one  dir- 
ection and  the  outer  taxiway  will  carry  traffic  in  the  opposite  direction. 

b.  Outline  Specification:    (See  taxiway  specification  under  Item  A-l  above) 

c.  Cost  Estimate  $  1,467,000. 

5.  Shoulder  Stabilization  on  Some  Existing  Taxiways: 

a.      Description:    On  taxiways  75l  wide  the  outboard  engines  of  the  new  large 


-16- 


jet  aircraft  will  be  beyond  the  edge  of  the  taxiway  pavement.    To 
minimize  ingestion  of  foreign  material  into  these  engines  and  also  to 
reduce  erosion  along  the  sides  of  the  taxiways,   it  is  considered  essential 
to  install  25'  wide  shoulders  stabilized  with  bituminous  concrete  on  both 
sides  of  taxiways  to  be  used  by  jets. 

It  is  proposed  to  construct  these  shoulders  on  the  westernmost  section  of 
the  parallel  taxiway  to  Runway  9C-27C  and  on  the  existing  portion  of 
the  outer  circular  taxiway. 

It  will  also  be  necessary  to  rework  the  perimeter  lighting  system  on  these 
taxiways  to  permit  the  shoulder  installation. 

b.  Outline  Specification:    Remove  existing  unclassified  material  to  depth 
required.     Install  new  granular  and  water  bound  macadam  sub-base  and 
3"  bituminous  concrete  wearing  surface.    Total  thickness  to  be  designed 
to  support  12,000  pound  single  wheel  loads.    Rework  taxiway  lights. 

c.  Cost  Estimate  $267,000. 

6.  Blast  Fence  at  Warm-Up  Pad  near  the  Northwest  End  of  Runway  14L-32R: 

a.  Description:  To  protect  the  hangar  area  road  and  hangar  development 
adjacent  to  the  warm-up  pad  from  jet  blasts,  it  is  planned  to  install  a 
blast  fence  which  will  deflect  these  blasts.

5.  Storm  Drainage  Improvements,  Alterations  and  Extensions  for  the  Airport: 

a.  Description:    The  airport  area  is  presently  served  by  two  drainage  outlets. 
One  is  to  the  north  across  Higgins  Road  and  the  other  is  to  the  southeast 
across  Mannheim  Road.    Both  outlets  eventually  empty  into  the  DesPlaines 
River. 

In  general,   it  is  proposed  to  carry  storm  water  to  the  edge  of  paved  areas 
in  underground  pipe,  and  thence  to  the  main  drainage  channels  in  open 
ditches.    The  drainage  system  will  be  designed  to  control  the  rapid  run- 
off from  the  large  paved  areas  so  that  it  will  leave  the  airport  at  a  pre- 
determined rate  which  will  not  innundate  the  populated  areas  beyond  the 
airport.    To  accomplish  this  result  it  will  be  necessary  to  provide  ponding 
areas  where  a  heavy  rainfall  can  be  impounded  and  allowed  to  drain  off 
gradually  through  existing  channels  beyond  the  airport. 

b.  Outline  Specification:    Pipe  will  be  corrugated  metal  and  concrete. 
Branch  ditches  will  have  slopes  of  not  greater  than  5  to  1  and  will  be

Fueling  System: 

a.      Description:     In  general  the  fueling  system  will  consist  of  a  primary  bulk 
storage  area,  known  as  the  Tank  Farm  Area,    located  in  the  northwest 
corner  of  the  airport,  satellite  storage  areas  located  around  the  periphery 
of  the  terminal  apron,   and  underground  apron  fueling  systems  which  will 
terminate  in  hydrants  at  individual  aircraft  parking  positions. 

Transfer  of  fuel  from  bulk  to  satellite  will  be  by  means  of  eight  underground 
pipe  lines  assigned  to  suppliers.     Each  of  these  lines  terminate  in  a  mani- 
fold at  the  Truck  Fill  Stand  Area  which  is  located  near  the  northwest 
corner  of  the  terminal  apron.     From  this  point  individual  airline-product 
lines,  which  also  connect  to  the  manifold,  will  extend  to  the  satellite 
storage  areas  beyond.    One  transfer  line  will  be  assigned  to  each  of  BNF, 
CAL,  CAP  and  NOR.    Two  lines  each  will  be  assigned  to  AAL,   DAL, 
NWA,  TWA,   UAL  and  EAL. 

Turbine  and  115  octane  Avgas  are  stored  in  the  bulk  tank  farm.     110 
octane  Avgas,   however,   is  stored  at  the  Truck  Fill  Stand  Area  and  will 
be  supplied  only  by  truck  .     Transfer  of  100  octane  Avgas  to  aircraft 
will  also  be  by  truck  only. 

Allowance  is  made  for  as  many  as  five  suppliers  of  turbine  fuel  and  three 
115  octane  Avgas  suppliers  if  each  supplies  about  the  same  quantity. 


-25- 


Four  suppliers  of  100  octane  can  be  accommodated. 

Bulk  Storage  Area:    Above  ground  tanks  will  be  provided  which  will  store 
three  days  supply  of  turbine  and  115  octane  fuel  based  on  1965  anticipated 
demand.     Facilities,   including  railroad  sidings,  will  be  provided  for  tank 
filling  by  railroad  tank  cars  and  trucks.     Facilities  will  also  be  provided 
to  permit  connections  for  supply  from  commercial  pipe  lines. 

Satellite  Storage  Areas:    Underground  tanks  in  the  satellite  areas  will  store 
one  day's  supply  of  turbine  and  1 15  Avgas  as  required  by  each  airline, 
except  that  any  airline  requirement  for  less  than  10,000  gallons  per  day 
will  be  satisfied  by  truck  refueler  drawing  directly  from  bulk  storage 
through  the  manifold  at  the  Truck  Fill  Stand  Area. 

Apron  Fueling  System:    Six  airlines,  AAL,   EAL,   DAL,   NWA,  TWA  and 
UAL  will  have  two  apron  systems  each.    These  can  be  used  for  two  grades 
of  fuel.    CAP,   BNF,   CAL  and  NOR  will  each  have  a  single  apron  system. 
Piping  will  be  extended,   however,  so  that  airlines  which  do  not  require 
sufficient  amounts  of  fuel  to  have  a  complete  separate  underground  apron 
system,  may,  by  adding  hydrant  valves  and  other  mechanical  equipment, 
purchase  fuel  through  a  major  fuel  user  located  on  their  finger. 

In  addition  to  the  above,   an  apron  system  with  two  hydrants  will  also  be 
furnished  to  The  Flying  Tiger  Lines'  apron  in  the  Cargo  Area.

consisting  of  two  full  floors,   a  mezzanine  floor,   and  a  partial  basement. 

General  separation  of  inbound  and  outbound  passengers  is  obtained  by  con- 
centrating items  relating  to  each  on  separate  floors.    The  outbound  pass- 
enger will  arrive  at  the  terminal  building  at  the  second  floor  via  an  ele- 
vated roadway.     He  may  proceed  by  the  ticket  counters  to  the  airplane 
without  leaving  this  level.    The  inbound  passenger  also  will  come  from 
the  airplane  at  the  second  level,   but  will  descend  to  the  first  floor  via 
escalators  to  claim  his  baggage  and  obtain  ground  transportation  from  the 
terminal . 

Consequently  the  first  floor  Is  devoted  largely  to  baggage  handling  areas 
and  to  concessions  related  to  inbound  passengers  such  as  rent-a-car 
agencies,   hotel  reservations,    limousine  and  taxi  offices,   telegraph 
counters,  etc.    The  second  floor  is  devoted  largely  to  airline  ticket 
counters,   offices,   waiting  areas  and  general  concessions  such  as  news- 
stands,   lunch  counters,    insurance  counters,   and  general  merchandise 
stores.

The  mezzanine  floor  will  accommodate  additional  airline  offices,  rental 
offices,  airline  clubs,  and  airport  administrative  offices.     Rental  space 
will  also  be  available  for  one  or  more  chapels.    A  partial  basement  and 
service  tunnel  will  provide  storage  space,  transformer  vaults  and  meter 
rooms  and  other  areas  for  mechanical  equipment .     Fan  rooms  to  ventilate 
the  buildings  will  be  located  on  the  roof.    Chilled  water  and  steam  for 
air  conditioning  and  heating  will  come  from  a  central  plant  located  in 
the  service  area.     All  areas  except  baggage  handling,  storage,  and 
mechanical  equipment  areas  will  be  air  conditioned.    A  public  address 
system  will  be  provided  and  also  conduit  for  other  airline  communica- 
tion requirements.

Hangar  Area  as  well  as  to  the  Tank  Farm.     In  addition,  at  the  request 

of  the  airlines,  another  section  of  roadway  is  planned  to  service  the 
easternmost  lots  of  the  Hangar  Area  and  give  them  a  shorter  connection 
to  the  Terminal  Area  than  is  possible  if  only  the  existing  road  is  used. 

b.  Outline  Specification:    The  roadway  will  be  constructed  with  3"  of 
bituminous  concrete  on  10"  of  compacted  water  bound  macadam  and  6" 
granular  sub-base.    The  roadway  will  be  25'  wide.

installed  by  Flying  Tiger  Line,   Inc.  which  also  will  build  a  cargo 
facility  in  this  location  „     Financing  of  this  facility  will  be  similar  to 
arrangements  for  hangar  financing.    The  cost  estimate  for  this  facility  is 
included  in  the  separate  cost  estimates  for  the  hangars. 

b.  Outline  Specification:    The  airplane  parking  aprons  will  be  constructed 
of  concrete  15"  thick,  on  a  compacted  granular  sub-base.    The  total 
design  thickness  will  be  such  as  to  support  single  wheel  loads  of  100,000 
pounds  according  to  CAA  standards.    The  edge  of  the  apron  will  be 
lighted.

IV     SUMMARY  OF  COST  ESTIMATES 


-53- 


SUMMARY  OF  COST  ESTIMATES 

The  estimates  of  construction  costs  which  are  summarized  in  this  section  of  the 
Engineering  Report  are  shown  in  greater  detail  in  the  Appendix. 

The  cost  estimates  of  the  fuel  system  were  prepared  by  engineers  in  the  office 
of  James  P.  O'Donnell,  New  York  City,  who  is  the  fuel  system  consultant  on  this  pro- 
ject. He  is  also  retained  as  the  fuel  consultant  on  the  Idlewild  Airport  project  for  the 
Port  of  New  York  Authority  in  New  York. 

Estimates  for  the  construction  of  the  hangars  were  prepared  by  the  airlines. 
These  estimates  include  all  architectural  and  engineering  fees  as  well  as  amounts  to 
cover  contingencies.     It  should  be  noted  that  these  hangar  allowances  are  the  maximum 
which  will  be  drawn  from  the  revenue  bond  issue  for  each  hangar.     If  any  hangar  is 
constructed  at  a  cost  which  exceeds  the  allowance  the  excess  cost  will  be  borne  by  the 
airline  involved. 

The  balance  of  the  cost  estimates  were  prepared  by  two  teams  of  engineers  and 
estimators  in  the  office  of  Naess  &  Murphy.     These  teams  prepared  independent  estimates 
which  were  then  consolidated  into  the  estimates  which  appear  in  this  Report  after  exten- 
sive discussion  regarding  any  value  judgments  involved. 

In  general  the  estimates  are  based  on  quantity  take-offs  times  unit  prices. 
Unit  prices  were  based  on  current  prices  adjusted,  as  considered  necessary,  for  increases 
anticipated  during  the  period  prior  to  construction. 

The  estimates  include  amounts  for  soil  borings,  soil  testing,  and  surveying. 
They  also  include  amounts  to  cover  insurance  during  the  period  of  construction. 

Except  in  case  of  hangar  estimates,  which  are  all  inclusive,  separate  items 
were  added  to  the  cost  estimates  for  other  items  in  the  first  stage  program  to  cover 


-54- 


contractors'  performance  bonds,  architectural  and  engineering  services  (including  the 
cost  of  preliminary  studies  and  the  services  of  consultants  Landrum  and  Brown  and 
James  P.  O'Donnell),  also  10%  has  been  added  to  cover  contingencies.
