and overall length can place major constraints
on an airport’s design. Figure 11.5 shows typical
data.

General clearances
Aircraft ground clearance is an important crite­
rion when considering ground-based obstacles
and both fixed and mobile ground servicing
facilities. Figure 11.6 shows typical data.

Door location and type
The location and type of doors have an influ­
ence on passenger access and cargo handling
design aspects of the overall airport facility.
