CRUISE TERMINAL
A Cruise Terminal is a building at a seaport where passengers transfer between ground transportation and the
facilities that allow them to board and disembark from cruise ship. Within the terminal, passengers purchase
tickets, transfer their luggage, and go through security. However, the public has always seen the waterfront
as a place for scenic recreation. Mixed-use developments offering retail, entertainment, aquariums, and other
attractions have been located at the waterfront and integrated into the urban fabric.
WHY CRUISE TERMINAL
By creating such infrastructure, India's global image would be redeveloped.
Personal Reason - I loved the experience of travelling on a Cruise.
India has a lot of tourism potential, it would give a head start to it.

2 |
NEED TO STUDY
It is known that in India the international cruise destinations are Mumbai, Goa and Cochin .
Since Cruise tourism is one of the most developing industries in India, the need of terminals at such
destination is a call of need now.
The terminal buildings at Mumbai and Cochin provided do not meet the international needs and facilities
for an ‘International Cruise Terminal’.
A new international cruise terminal has been proposed in Mumbai and is expected to be ready by 2016.
Goa is one such destination which may not be a port of call but has one of the highest tourist place
in the nation.
Also it is an emerging need for the domestic tourism.
Thus a Cruise Terminal can cater as a gateway to Goa for both the domestic as well as the international
cruises and can be a landmark.
AIMS AND OBJECTIVE
• The main aim of the design is to provide a cruise terminal which will serve as an intermediate port for
international cruises and a destination for the domestic cruises as the government seeks to give importance
to Goa as an overall tourist destination.
• The terminal should be an initiative to boost cruise tourism within the country as well.
• Also to have public participation / public spaces which will add to the revenue to the terminal.
• The research will explore various design aspects that will make up a Cruise Terminal and implement it.
SCOPE
• The facilities provided at the present cruise terminals are falling short of passenger handlings and services
• Since the terminal is a public building, it will be open to all kinds of passengers with a diverse range of
backgrounds
• The design would serve to be as an important structure and a gateway to Goa.
LIMITATION
• Statistically , the international terminal will be used 4 times a month .
• Thus areas are to be provided which will keep the terminal will be used during other times as well .

3 |
• Since Goa is an intermediate point, there is no embarkation and disembarkation of luggage's. Thus baggage
handling and such service areas are to be looked upon.
As far as the domestic cruises is concerned, the development is at a slower paseo. Statistic shows that the
development of domestic cruises will boost after 10yrs.
• Thus an area would be dedicated as future development it but there would be no design for domestic
terminal as such. It would improve the lost economy of the ports.

CRUISE TOURISM
Tourism has, since the 1950’ s, became an extremely popular, global
activity. A Cruise is generally a defined package that includes a cruise
itinerary spanning a defined period of time. Cruises, which were at one
time considered as the prerogative of the rich, is today a fast reaching
option for the wider leisure market. Representing one of the fastest
growing sectors worldwide, Cruise market trends indicate a qualitative
as well as quantitative consolidation in the industry, with cruising gaining
greater significance in the global ‘ Tourism Pie’ .
There are 4 dominant factors that make up cruising:
1. Attractions – include interesting destinations and itineraries,
2. Facilities on board – include a total holiday and entertainment package,
3. Transportation – having the ability to move from one place to another without the need of packing
and unpacking at each destination,
4. Hospitality – having professional staff looking after you in luxury.
EMERGENCE OF CRUISE INDUTRY
Boats are not the oldest form of transport, but from ancient times up until the invention
of steam they were the mode most easily advanced. Global exploration and navigation was
pioneered via the sea, while inland the movement of mass load for trading and construction
purposes was predominantly facilitated by boat on rivers on manmade canals. Cruise tourism
made its small beginnings in 1839 as part of the fortnightly crossing mail service between
Liverpool and Boston .The increasing travel demand through the 1950's and into the 60's
kept the liners busy crossing with tourists from both continents. Ships began to cater solely
to passengers, rather than to cargo or mail contracts, and added luxuries like electric lights,
more deck space, and entertainment. By the early 20th century the concept of the superliner

was developed and Germany led the market in the development of these massive and ornate floating hotels.
The design of these liners attempted to minimize the discomfort of ocean travel, masking the fact of being
at sea and the extremes in weather as much as possible through elegant accommodations and planned
activities.
MAJOR DRIVER FOR CRUISE TOURISM IN GOA
Sun, sand & beautiful beaches; Lush countryside, exotic locales, swaying palms, seafood & architectural
splendors of its churches, convents and old houses Key offerings of serenity, relaxation & parties A meeting
point of religions and cultures of East and West over the centuries, Goa has a multi-hued and distinctive
lifestyle quite unique from the rest of India
GLOBAL SCENERIO
At global level, tourism has emerged as one of the major economic activities today. In 1995, the World Tourist
arrival were about 567.4 million of which Europe’s share way by America with 20 % . The share of South Asian
region was an abysmally low 0.8 % According to WTO estimates, Europe will continue to remain the most
popular tourist destination with about 717 million tourist estimated for the year 2020. International tourists
arrival in South Asia is expected at 19 million in 2020, which is almost 5 times that of 1995, but
still quite low as
compared to
other destinations.
India is expected
to fuel 4.5 times

growth in international tourist arrivals, more than half of the total arrivals in South Asia. World Tourists
Arrivals In 2005
HISTORIC LEVELS OF WORLWIDE GROWTH
Over the past two decades, the cruise industry has emerged as one of the fastest growing and popular
segments of the worldwide travel and leisure industry. In 1980, 1.4 million individuals embarked on a
conventional cruise operated by a North American cruise operator, a level that has climbed to approximately
14.3 million by 2007.2 Cruise statistics for 2007 generated an approximate 4.1% growth rate for North American
passengers. Critical growth has also been seen
in the U.K., European Continental and Asian cruise markets over this
time period.
Growth of the conventional worldwide market provides cruise operators
with the impetus to expand current market offerings and expand into
new and growing market sectors worldwide. With continued cruise
passenger growth, this points to further expansion of the cruise
industry. For the Asia‐Pacific region, specifically Mumbai this means
that the cruise industry is working to expand the potential in the
region for cruise passenger growth which will be reflected in the
additional presence of cruise vessels in the region to create and
support this growth potential.

Past trends reflect that the main purpose of arrivals
in India has been tourism; though in the
present day business travel is gaining sufficient
momentum for growth in the coming years
REGIONAL SCENERIO
Goa has been one of the major tourist destinations in India for Foreign visitors 11% of the total foreigners
visiting the country as is visible. During the years from 2005 to 2013, the share of foreign tourists as share
of total tourists visiting Goa has considerably increased from 11.83% in 2005 to 22.39% in 2013 as shown in
the table. This is significantly higher than the normal trend of about 3.37% (2008) of foreign tourists observed
in India.

HISTORY OF GOA
During the years from 2005 to 2013, the share of foreign tourists as share of total tourists visiting
Goa has considerably increased from 11.83% in 2005 to 22.39% in 2013 as shown in the table. This is
significantly higher than the normal trend of about 3.37% (2008) of foreign tourists observed in India.
HISTORY OF GOA PORT
It has one major Port at Mormugoa which caters to passenger and cargo.
it caters to international tourist passenger.
goa has also small port at panji for domestic tourist passenger.
The Portuguese chose the Port of Mormugao to be the capital of their empire, and it was an important trade
centre for the British.
In 1964, the Port of Mormugao was recognized as a Major Port for India.
the Mormugão port has contributed immensely to growth of maritime trade in India. It is the leading iron
ore exporting port of India with an annual throughput of around 27.33 million tonnes of iron ore traffic.
There is no dedicated passenger terminal at present. The bare minimum amenities that can be made available
are provided for the comfort of the tourists by making temporary arrangements in
sheds.

traveler would either ‘fly in’ or drive in to the home poarts to take their cruise.
2) Port of Call
As a Port of Call the port would act as the transit and receiving ports to national and international
ships that touch several destinations as part of their cruise circuit. Travelerswho disembark at the
port visit destinations either close at hand or may sometimes even fly to distant destinations. At times
travelers who disembark at a particular port may embark the ship at some other port closer to he
destination they have chosen to visit.

ROLES PORTS PLAY
Infrastructure Role: Ports provide the sea based and land based core infrastructure for ships to
arrive and berth comfortably and safely. They are to ships what airports are to aircrafts and,
accordingly, the nature, extent and sufficiency of the port infrastructure facilities would determine the
size, frequency and type of vessels which come in.
Hospitality Role: For visiting ships, Ports provide the vital entry point and the first exposure of the
tourist to the destination. Similarly for outgoing tourists, ports would be the exit point. The manner of
receiving the tourists and the tourist amenities and facilities provided would determine the tourism
popularity of the concerned port.
Connectivity Role: Since ports are the transit locations for incoming as well as outgoing tourists, the
efficiency of the ports in terms of effective linkages to airports, railways etc and fast connectivity to
popular tourism destinations in the State and the country would be critical.

BUOYS:

POLLUTION CONTROL TECHNIQUES:
The port areas are always affected by sewage disposal and get accumulated over the stagnant zones. The algae
formation is another drawback. The high tide and low tide influences the movement of algae in and out the
port region. The algae’s are dangerous for speed boats, since it clogs inside the propellers. The floating layer
of algae makes the speed boats to slip over losing control.
Generally two methods are used to tackle these problems.
1) Tugs are tied to the floating net and the algae film is wiped out to the shore.
2) The sewage and oil films over the channel are removed by installing temporary sucking pump system.

TYPES OF CRUISES
Ocean Voyages: A one-way passage from one point to another over a major body of water.
Standard Cruises: An open water cruise may be one-way or round-trip with several ports of call.
River/Canal Cruises: River and canal cruises are closely linked to the culture and heritage of the
country being toured.
Destination / Expedition Cruises: based on the destination to be visited.
Day Cruises: Day cruises are typically a cruise experience of 15 hours or less.
Contemporary Cruises: These cruise lines typically have resort-style facilities with heavy emphasis on
ship-board activities.
Luxury Cruises: offering high style luxury with emphasis on destinations and ship-board amenities.
Specialty Cruises: Adventure-style cruising with a heavy emphasis on destination, education, and off
ship activities.

3.CASE STUDY

29 |
YOKOHAMA INTERNATIONAL CRUISE TERMINAL
LOCATION: Yokahama, Japan
• BUILT IN: 2002
• BUILTUP AREA: 30100SQM
• CLIMATE: Humid subtropical climate •
The design of the Yokohama International Port
Terminal was part of a competition won in 1995 by
Foreign Office Architects. The Terminal was completed
in 2002 in time for the World Cup, hosted by Japan
in that year.
The ambition of the architects was to create a pier “where you never retrace your
steps.” The idea was that a visitor could travel the pier in any direction and would experience a continuous
forward momentum.
The Yokohama Terminal was a highly ambitious project on a large scale. It was also one of the first projects
in a new generation of cyber-influenced architecture.

30 |
CONCEPT
The project staffs with what the architects have named as the "No Return PieR', with the ambition to structure
the precinct ofthe pier as a fluid, uninterrupted and multi-directional space, rather than a gateway to flows
of fixed orientation. A series of programmatically specific interlcxking circulation loops allow the architects
to subvert the traditional linear and branching structure characteristic of the building.
Rather than developing the building as an object or figure on the pier, the project is produced as an extension
of the urban ground, constructed as a systematic transformation of the lines of the circulation diagram into
folded and bifurcated surface. The folds produce covered surfaces where
the different parts of the program can be hosted.
FEATURES OF THE TERMINAL
I. The Terminal can accommodate up to
four LOA class vessels or two class vessels at the same time.
2. The height of the building is designed to allow passengers to comfortably get on and off vessels, but at
the same time it hovers on the horizon so as not to interrupt the view of the Port. The rooftop is gently
curved if it was symbolizing rolling waves.
3. As the pier projects into the sea, visitors coming from the land would usually have to walk to the end of
the pier and return all the way back again towards the land to leave the pier. Given this, the Terminal has
diverse Baggage’s for better navigability based on the
concept of serving a citizens' park .
CIRCULATION SEQUENCE
The circulation sequence shows the nodes of interest as one would approach and enter the port from the
city. the approach shows pedestrian and vehicular sequence. One can perceive how the programmatic

31 |
elements are merely zones and there is no concrete separation between zones of program and circulation.
the overlapping zones provide for the diagram at right where only the beginning and end of the sequence are
nonoverlapping nodes

32 |
MOVEMENT FLOW OF PASSENGERS
1. The circulation sequence shows the nodes of interest as one would approach and enter the port from the
city.
2. The approach shows pedestrian and vehicular sequence. One can perceive how the programmatic elements
are merely zones and there is no concrete separation between zones of program and circulation.
3. The overlapping zones provide for the diagram at right where only the beginning and end of the sequence
are non overlapping nodes.
4. The utilization and perception of the space is constantly modified by the size and arrangement of the
ships.
5. The major circulation paths become evident during high traffic times but the gentle curves of the structure
allow people to flow almost completely unrestricted.
6. The two distinct flows are that of embarking and disembarking, the two overlap constantly, and adding
minor circulatory flows such as visitor and passenger pick up, completely bring the architecture to life.

The floors of the second floor and rooftop are finished with wood to give a feeling of a ship’s deck. The
wood used here is a Brazilian wood called Ipe, which has excellent strength
and durability as well as a specific gravity greater than that of water. (Wooden

WHY COLUMN FREE SPACE?
-free structure was appropriate because it would provide fewer interruptions to the flow of
passengers constantly moving through the space.
Moreover, since cruise ships would only moor at the terminal daily, it was important that the terminal offer

red at the terminal, the furniture can be rolled away transforming the
space into a large venue for a variety of different kinds of events like markets, banquets, fashion shows and
fairs. This gives the terminal ongoing life and activity and ensures that it is connected with the lives of
citizens in many different ways likely to incite them to explore various directions.
STRUCTURE
1. The building is steel framed, consisting of main beams (girders) on the two sides and a triangular pyramid
(folded plates) system to support the roof and floors.
2. These results in a massive column-less interior space, with external walls all made with tempered glass.
In short, wood, steel and glass are what constitute the Terminal.
3. The strength of the materials minimizes the need for vertical supports and allows for a mostly open floor
plan, while the height of the structure allows for a spectacular variety of ceiling conditions in the interior
spaces.

42 |
AXON
1. The design sought to encompass the
general functional imperatives of the
cruise terminal (as a smoothly
functioning link between land and
water transport)
2. The terminal is a shed building
measuring 412 meters in length and
composed of 27 steel trusses averaging
42.5 meters in span and placed at 16
meter intervals.
3. The trusses are joined longitudinally
by trussed members of conventional
configuration, and purlins carrying,
either metal cladding or glazing.
4. The trusses are carried on concrete
piers extending from the basement
parking level through the apron to the
surface of the main level.
5. The large shed employs unified form
through repetitive structural units to
enclose a single homogeneous space.
6. The transformation yields a complex
of spaces that smoothly incorporates
the multiple terminals, civic and
garden programmes within and below its span.

he Port of San Francisco retained the services of Public Works to oversee the development of the existing
Pier 27 into a new primary cruise ship terminal and public plaza.The joint venture of KMD Architects and
Pfau Long Architecture provided the architectural and engineering services.
the Port transformed the existing ten-acre Pier 27 site into a vibrant year-round cruise terminal, public
plaza and community facility that meets security and passenger handling demands of the cruise industry,
while also allowing for public recreation and special event uses. The terminal is a 21st century new fresh face
for the cruise line visitor designed to stream line the embarking and debarking exercise and enhance their
visit to San Francisco.
terminal functions as the main point of entry for ships during the cruise season but will be available for
rent most of the year for special events such as conventions, nonprofit fundraisers, private parties and

CONCLUSION
The luxury and comfort associated with cruise vessels translates into a demand for superior
infrastructure and facilities even at the ports-of-call of the cruise vessel. A high average spending by
cruise tourists has given the sector a high preference in most economies that have a seacoast to
offer. The Mumbai international cruise terminal provides the maximum facilities in India as compared
to other terminals. Still it lacks in its infrastructure facilities provided. The planning and zoning of the
terminal building is a very simply flow thus making it tourist friendly. The spaces are well planned
and are also user friendly. Thus these qualities make the Mumbai cruise terminal the best in India.
The terminal building is only used when the vessel arrives. There are no activities carried otherwise.
Thus it is not maintained from time to time.

GOA AND ITS ARCHITECTURE
Goa is a state in western India with coastlines stretching along the Arabian Sea.The tiny state of Goa
in western India has a unique culture due to Portuguese colonization that continued here from the
16th century till the mid 20th century. The architecture of Goa, has also evolved with elements from
many sources, predominantly European and indigenous. The churches, forts, mansions and other
monuments of Goa testify the blend of radically different cultures and thoughts that have gone into
them.
The temples around Ponda are in a style of temple architecture, so unique, that it cannot be seen
anywhere else in India.Before the arrival of the Portuguese, most Goan houses were mostly made of
mud and had a thatched roof.

75 |
7. DESIGN PRINCIPALS AND CONCEPT

76 |
PROGRAM
The site calls for the design of a state of the art cruise terminal which must deal with the issues of
arrival (disembarkation)
departure (embarkation)
The programs would include large volumes for upto 4500 people at a point of time for functions such as
screening
lobbies check in and waitng, transitioning spaces such as lounges... these spatial requirements have been based
on the pre-sumption of the 4500 person usage i.e. I .5 sq. m space per person for baggage the security
requ rements of the
space include spaces for the customs and border protection entity.
Apart from these spaces are the spaces required for offices, security, crew spaces and storage and provisional
Services for such large volumes of spaces are also large and a provision needs to be made Public amenities
a so become integral to the design of this terminal and the functions of restaurants, bars, cafes, retail, food
court. multi functional spaces and galleries have been taken as 15% of the large pre required cruise terminal
Programming the Ste with the varied understanding will allow for a design that something that serves the
tourist sector
and brings in revenue along with giving a touristic feel to the site.
The development shall also provide A URBAN IDENTITY TO THE CITY.
TERMINAL BUILDING

77 |
DESIGN STRATEGY
The design strategy is based on programs analysis, programs diagram, which extracts and simulates the
programs in the city to the site .
The parametric procedure is algorithmic mathematics and is used to design the
andscape pattern and the architectural form.The landscape pattern will form the building and the
building will wrap around the interpenetrated circulation. In between the intergeneration, the spaces
create the interact-on. The a gorithmic mathematics refers to the predictably changes. The number
will change and transform consistent y. The changing pattern illustrates and breaks down the solid
structural system bonds between the urban territory and the city
boundary.
CONCEPT
BUILDING CONCEPT
FLUDITY ARCHITECTURE is a new and avolved style of the architecturet.the fluidity of architecture is the
interaction of multiple elements from the scale of the building.the function of the building the flow of
people similar to flow of the building shape When it comes to building something visually striking and
unique for people to observe, utilizing techniques of form and shape is certainly one way to create a
breathtaking structure, and these fluid architectural designs are incorporating sleek lines and soft
curves to showcase a beautiful flowing appearance.
my thesis is utilizing the concept of fludity as an architecture methodology

78 |
ARCHITECTURE CHARECTER CONCEPT
As a building type, the terminal must provide functionality for its users, but it also offers great
opportunity for expression of form contextual materials, precedence of history, asects of light, color,
volume and the potential to inform its site and environment. Transient buildings like this terminal
provide their own precedents and cues, consistent with their contexts. These buildings can be useful
example for this terminal and warrant study during the creation of the terminal architecture.
OPEN SPACE CHARACTER-GRADE CONCEPT
as a gateway into goa as well cruise ship as well as the cruise ship the open
space and architectural character should be distinctly contextual. There is a
rich existing character to goa waterfront that should serve as inspiration for
the open space and building concepts. This is a working waterfront and the
character should reflect that maritime quality. Similarly, the functionality of
the terminal should be the primary driver of roof top space - character
should be expressive of this dynamic, and contrast to the more open and
flexible nature of the plaza. Grade and Edge Concepts The success of the site
depends on maximizing the opportunities of the edges. The limitations of
planting on structure mean that hardscape and structural elements will be the
dominant devices for spatial definition. In the plaza, as well as active spaces
in and of themselves. Restaurant and retail activity will also engage people,
drawing them into the plazas from the street. The water's edge is another
natural attraction. Grade transition could be also utilized here to strengthen
the sense of space.

79 |
OPEN SPACE CHARACTER -PROGRAM CONCEPT
VVhile the site will offer its own
innate draw with the proximity of
the big ships, addition programming
can build on this to create a vibrant
active gathering space. The plazas
should be designed with enough
flexibility to support multiple
programs, as well as with activity
generators such as food vendors.
Programs
include ship viewing, casual
gathering, lunch seating, integrated
and interactive art, and special
events.
