BNP was the Baggage Handling System (BHS) design lead for Muller & Muller, Ltd. and the Chicago Department of Aviation, delivering improvements to the Chicago O’Hare International Airport Terminal 5 BHS.
The challenges presented with this redevelopment design included a lack of space, restrictive BHS clear heights within the existing bagroom, and the need for a comprehensive phasing plan to ensure ongoing operations during construction.
To fully optimize the existing make-up area, the design team provisioned a new PGDS-compliant originating Checked Baggage Inspection System (CBIS) below a new East Head House expansion area. The make-up bagroom design included 15 new flat plate carousels, a dedicated recheck oversize screening area, a consolidated manual encode zone, and a new lane-based early bag storage system. The make-up area also provisioned adequate drive aisle circulation for the pre-clear and international arrival unloads occupying the shared space.
This phasing plan included over 30 installation and demolition steps, including temporary systems to ensure the Terminal 5 airlines could continue to screen and process baggage throughout construction.
