of the gates equals to the Peak Hour Operations /2, as shown in Table 6- 11 , the peak hour
operations that can be accommodated by the runway was determined in Section 6.2.3.

Equation 6-2 is used to estimate the number of recommended gates:

Gate time supplied ≥ gate time demanded

훍퐤퐍퐤 ≥ E ( 퐓퐠)퐂퐠 (6-2)

Where:

μk= gate utilization factor.

Nk= number of gates available.

E (Tg)= expected value of the gate occupancy time demanded.

Cg= capacity of the gates per hour.

• Assume gate utilization factor 80%, the gate occupancy time demanded 50 min.
