For this purpose, a new building has been designed, the international terminal, connected with a new boarding pier which spans over more than 400 m. The total designed area of this new expansion is 27,000 m 2 . The principal structure modelled with SCIA Engineer is the new international terminal building, a single construction of more than 5,600 m 2 . This building has a steel roof composed of several spatial and planar trusses made of tubular HSS sections, forming different inclinations on the roof. For the analysis, calculation and design SCIA Engineer was used. The complex steel structures, the roof and façade, were modelled directly in the software. Furthermore, advanced analysis with nonlinear considerations, second order, tension-only elements, physical non-linearity of the concrete material and advanced dynamics and seismic analysis were performed. The ACI and AISC normative verification of the steel and concrete designs has been made in the project. SCIA Engineer proved to be very flexible with data input, obtaining more productivity than with any other structural software used in the company.
