Security Information--DIA-TIPS Line
Denver International Air****t has a phone line to provide
travelers with current wait times for security screening
at the air****t.
DIA-TIPS, (303) 342-8477, provides travelers with the
most current average wait times at the air****t’s three
security screening checkpoints.
Denver International Air****t is the only major air****t
to be built in the U.S. in the last 25 years.
The current facility can accommodate 50 million passengers
a year without any additional construction. In 2002, DEN
served 35.65 million passengers, an average of nearly
98,000 per day.

and the sixth is 16,000 feet (4,853 meters) long

Fast Facts
Nearly 2.9 million cubic yards of concrete were used to
construct six runways, taxiways and aprons.
The Jeppesen Terminal roof is 126 feet from the terminal
floor to its highest point and is sup****ted by 34 masts
and 10 miles of steel cable. The two rows of masts are
150 feet apart. The roof system uses a catenary cable system
similar to that of the Brooklyn Bridge and relies on design
curvature and equalization of the fabric's internal stress
fields for stability and the ability to sup****t wind and
snow loads. The roof membrane weighs less than two pounds per
square foot, a total of approximately 400 tons.
A quarry in Marble, Colorado, supplied the white marble used
on areas of the terminal walls. This stone is from the same
quarry that supplied marble for the Tomb of the Unknown
Soldier and the Lincoln Memorial.
DEN's 327-foot FAA control tower is one of the tallest in
North America. There are 548 stairs from ground level to
the top and the average walking time is 20 minutes.
The tower is engineered to sway only one-half inch in an
86-mile-per-hour wind.
The air****t site, though relatively flat, was lowered in some
areas and raised in others, requiring the moving of 110 million
cubic yards of earth. 110 million cubic yards is approximately
one-third the amount of dirt moved during the Panama Canal project.
This amount of earth, if dumped into a single pile, would cover
32 city blocks to a depth of one-quarter mile.
DEN has a fiber optic communications spine with 5,300 miles
of cable. That is enough cable to run from New York City to
Buenos Aires, Argentina. That length is longer than the River
Nile. The air****t's 11,365 miles of copper cable would be
enough to run from Los Angeles to Paris and back.
The fueling system at DEN is capable of pumping 1,000 gallons
of jet fuel per minute through a 28-mile network of pipes.
Each of the six fuel farm tanks holds 65,000 barrels
(2.73 million gallons) of jet fuel. The 28 miles of fuel
pipe would extend from Idaho Springs, Colorado, to the summit
of Mt. Evans.
Denver International Air****t has 1,500 flight and baggage
information display monitors.
The passenger bridge between the Jeppesen Terminal and
Concourse A is 365 feet long, weighs 3,300 tons and the
bottom of the bridge is 45.61 feet above the taxiway
pavement at the highest point of its arc.
Runways were built in layers, beginning with six feet of
compacted, non-expansive soil, followed by a rototilled
12-inch layer of lime-treated soil to form a subgrade.
On top of the subgrade are eight inches of a cement-treated
base, topped with 17 inches of concrete.
Jeppesen Terminal has more than
1.5 million square feet of space.

Jeppesen Terminal
Denver International Air****t’s terminal building is named for
businessman and aviation pioneer Elrey B. Jeppesen whose "Jepp"
navigational maps and charts are standard equipment in nearly
every commercial airline cockpit around the world.
Arriving and Departing
Departing passengers arrive at the dual-sided Jeppesen Terminal
via Peņa Boulevard, the air****t roadway. The roadway divides to
Terminal West and Terminal East, and then separates into three
traffic levels on each side for greater convenience and less
traffic congestion.
Upper Level (Level 6, Departures): departing passengers;
curbside baggage check-in, airline ticket counters and
public buses (Door 613)
Mid-Level (Level 5, Ground Trans****taiton): drop-off/pick-up
lanes for taxis, car rental vans, shuttles, charters and buses
Lower Level (Level 4, Arrivals): passenger pickup
Nearly 25,000 public spaces are available for short- and long-term
parking, plus 8,900 spaces for overflow
Inside the Terminal
Baggage claim is on Level 5.
Central security-screening areas at entrances to people-mover train.
The people-mover train links Jeppesen Terminal and
Concourses A, B and C. Passengers using Concourse A have the
option of walking to or from the Terminal via a glass-enclosed bridge.
Flight information monitors are located at each entrance to the train
station for convenient reference. Baggage information monitors are
located near baggage-claim carousels.
Car rental and ground trans****tation carrier counters are in the
central terminal atrium between the security-screening areas.
A variety of shops and restaurants are located in the terminal
atrium, including a food court and a casual dining establishment.
Emphasis is on quality at a reasonable cost.
International arrivals proceed through Federal Inspection
Services area at the north end of Terminal Level 5.
Jeppesen Terminal Trivia
The Terminal's Atrium or "Great Hall" is 900 feet by 210 feet.
The roof's outer waterproof shell is made of Teflon-coated woven
fiber glass; the inner membrane is made of uncoated woven fiber glass.
The Teflon coating facilitates wash-down and maintenance.
Inner and outer roof membranes comprise 15 acres of material.
The white color reflects 90 percent of sunlight.
Ten percent of visible light p***** through the roof fabric for
daylighting and the fiber glass has little mass, so it does not
conduct heat or store it.
Varieties of granite from around the world -- Asia, Africa,
Europe, North and South America -- are used in the terminal
floor. The floor pattern echoes the roof design and subtly
reinforces passenger flows.

CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT: ["severe environmental conditions"] at D.I.A.
http://www.bigclassaction.com/class_action/mold.html
A class action lawsuit has been filed against Denver International
Air****t on behalf of travelers and employees who have been exposed
to extensive mold and fungi contamination at the air****t. The suit
claims that thousands of people have been exposed since 1995, and
that the exposure can and has caused an number of recurring
respiratory problems. The suit claims "severe environmental
conditions," especially in the Concourse B section of the air****t,
which has given rise to extreme mold and fungi contamination.
The suit further claims that there have been recurring raw sewage
leaks and emissions of toxic gases. The suit is seeking damages for
those who were exposed, as well as an injunction to decrease the
contamination and to compel the air****t to to "take all precautions
necessary to protect the health of the plaintiffs and class members.

Art at DIA: Engaging, Informative and Stimulating
http://www.flydenver.com/guide/art/index.asp
Visitors are in for a rare Colorado experience
when they pass through Denver International Air****t.
The Public Art Program features 26 site-specific
works created by 39 artists. The pieces are located
in the landscape, the architecture of the Jeppesen
Terminal and Concourses, and in the train tunnels
and communication systems. Along with the permanent
art collection, DIA offers an exhibition program
that changes every quarter. The exhibits provide a
pleasant diversion from what can be a stressful
travel process. During the holidays, musicians,
children’s choirs and roving performers entertain
passengers, visitors and employees by creating a
festive and welcoming atmosphere. The DIA experience
is truly enhanced by the presence of the arts.

"Instead of being at the mercy of wild beasts,
earthquakes, landslides, and inundations,
modern man is battered by the elemental forces
of his own psyche. This is the World Power that
vastly exceeds all other powers on earth.
The Age of Enlightenment, which stripped nature
and human institutions of gods, overlooked the
God of Terror who dwells in the human soul."
