According to CAM, BIM technology is capable of accelerating project completion and solves many engineering problems by turning 2D drawings into 3D models.

Construction of the passenger terminal building north extension project started earlier this year. CAM also used BIM technology for this expansion.

The facility will boost the terminal building floor space to 14,000m², featuring a total of five passenger loading bridges.

In addition, the overall design capacity of the passenger terminal building increased from six million passengers per annum to 7.8 million.
