dc.description.abstractArchitecture is that field of human, endeavor that concerns itself with man’s essence of being, in a comfortable environment. Architecture can only foster enjoyable experience and consequent appreciation if its commitment is total. Man has failed to recognize the fact that the architectural vocation of any particular place should be governed by the culture of the inhabitants and the nature of the place. By recognizing human and social needs, and by application of suitable strategies and techniques of design, all the complex requirements of architecture can be reconciled and integrated into structures which are both humane and efficient. The effectiveness of a transportation system in commonly measured in terms of its ability to efficiently process the transported unit, and the performance of an airport system is dependent upon the individual components which comprise it. Kaduna International Airport requires sequential utilization of several facilities and as such its overall efficiency had been limited by the characteristic of the least efficient component which is the passenger and baggage handling facility. AIRPORT *88 is an attempt at providing an ideal passenger terminal system that responds to passenger comfort and convenience requirements; that provides a favorable atmosphere for airline operators and airport management; that satisfies the peculiar nature of Kaduna International Airport as regards domestic and occasional international flight operations; and that will accommodate possible organisational, economic or technological changes. Development is the act of growing, increasing, becoming more complete and thus paving way for economic possibilities. Essential facilities that are required for the technical competency of Kaduna Airport are available in serviceable condition. Put lack of a proper passenger terminal system hinders its commercial viability. Thus, the end product of this research is a contribution to the development of Kaduna International Airport.en_US
