This presentation highlights the design-build approach used to deliver the largest modular concourse project at DFW’s Terminal F. Attendees will explore how innovative modular construction techniques enabled rapid fabrication, transportation and installation of massive terminal modules while minimizing disruption to active airport operations. The session will cover the process of planning, engineering and logistics strategies, integration of building systems, and lessons learned from one of the airport industry’s most ambitious projects. Participants will gain insights into schedule acceleration, cost efficiencies and operational continuity, illustrating how modular design-build methods are shaping the future of large-scale airport infrastructure development.

• Design and engineering strategies: insights into planning, structural design and system integration for modular terminals in an active airport
• Design-build approach: why design-build delivery made this project a success
• Precision integration: gigantic modules were flawlessly aligned and connected, demonstrating the precision needed to deliver the modules
• Lessons learned: challenges faced, solutions applied and best practices for future modular airport projects
• Accelerated schedule despite size: large-scale prefabrication allowed on-site assembly to proceed rapidly.
