In order for the passive fire safety measures for all of these situations to be appropriate and sufficient, possible fire hazards must be known from the very beginning of the design. For this purpose, in this study, typical features of the airport terminals in terms of architectural program, spatial organization, functional relationship, building structure, building elements and building materials were determined and based on these determinations, fire hazards were revealed in terms of spatial and occupant profile.
