29、 and departure zone:A clear zoneavailable for flight of a helicopter as it approaches or departsfrom the heliports designated takeoff and landing area. 3.3 fixed offshore platform:A platform extendingabove and supported by the sea bed by means of piling,spread footings, or other means with the inten

30、ded purposeof remaining stationary over an extended period. 3.4 flight deck:Flight deck area is the portion of a heli-port surface provided for helicopter takeoff and landing. 3.5 gross weight:Gross weight is defined as the certi-fied maximum takeoff weight of the helicopter for which theheliport is

31、 designed to accommodate. 3.6 ground cushion:An improvement in flight capabil-ity that develops whenever the helicopter flies or hoversnear the heliport or other surface. It results from the cushionof denser air built up between the surface and helicopter bythe air displaced downward by the rotor. 3

32、.7 ground cushion area:Ground cushion area is thesolid portion of a heliport surface provided for properground cushion effect. This area may be only the flight deckor the flight deck plus its perimeter safety shelf. 3.8 helicopter:A rotary wing aircraft which dependsprincipally for its support and m

33、otion in the air upon the liftgenerated by one or more power-driven rotors, rotating onsubstantially vertical axes. 3.9 heliport:An area on a structure used for the landingand takeoff of helicopters and which includes some or all ofthe various facilities useful to helicopter operation, such asparkin

34、g, tiedown, fueling, maintenance, and so forth. 3.10 hover:A flight characteristic peculiar to helicopterswhich enables them to remain stationary above a fixed point. 3.11 multi-helicopter heliport:A heliport designedfor use by more than one helicopter at any one time. 3.12 overall helicopter length

35、:The overall length ofa helicopter is the distance from the tip of the main rotorblade to the tip of the tail rotor when the rotor blades arealigned along the longitudinal axis of the helicopter. Simi-larly, for a tandem rotor helicopter, the overall length isfrom the tip of the front main rotor to

36、the tip of the rear mainrotor. Herein the overall length is referred to as OL. 3.13 rotor diameter:Rotor diameter is the diameter ofa circle made by the rotor blades while rotating. Herein themain rotor diameter is referred to as RD. 3.14 safety net:A safety net is a netting section aroundthe perime

37、ter of the flight deck used for personnel safety,and is normally provided in lieu of a safety shelf where theflight deck alone provides ground cushion effect. 1Federal Aviation Administration, 800 Independence Avenue, S.W., Wash-ington, DC 20591.

40、tyof personnel, and may be included in the ground cushion area. 4 Planning4.1 GENERAL4.1.1This section serves as a guide for the design andconstruction of heliports on offshore platforms. Adequateplanning should be performed before actual design is startedin order to obtain a safe and practical heli

41、port with which toaccomplish the design objective. Initial planning shouldinclude all criteria pertaining to the design of the heliport.The safety departments of the helicopter companies canprovide valuable assistance during the planning phase. 4.1.2In planning the heliport, consideration should beg

42、iven to the helicopters gross weight, landing load distribu-tion, rotor diameter, overall length, and landing gear config-uration, as well as ground cushion area and the number ofhelicopters to be accommodated by the heliport. 4.1.3Design criteria presented herein include operationalrequirements, sa

43、fety considerations, and environmentalaspects which could affect the design of the heliport. 4.2 HELICOPTER SELECTIONConsiderations for selecting the helicopter for heliportdesign are: a. Distance from onshore staging areas or helicopter bases. b. Proximity to other offshore heliports, on either sat

44、ellitestructures or adjacent field structures. c. Status as to whether the platform is manned or unmannedand with or without living quarters. d. Helicopter transportation requirement for the platform. e. Crew change requirements. f. Night helicopter needs, whether routine service, medicalremoval, or

45、 emergency evacuation. g. Environmental conditions. 4.3 OPERATIONAL CONSIDERATIONSThe following are the operational considerations:4.3.1 FunctionThe function of the heliport should be classified as eithersingle-helicopter or multi-helicopter operation although aheliport designed for one large helico

46、pter may accommo-date two smaller helicopters if the minimum clearancerequirements are met. 4.3.2 LocationBefore final location of the heliport is selected, obstruc-tion clearances, personnel safety, and environmental condi-tions, as well as proximity of the approach-departure zoneto flammable mater

47、ials, engine exhaust, and cooler dis-charge should be considered. For clearance from obstruc-tions the following should be considered: 4.3.2.1 Approach-Departure ZoneThis zone should be free from obstruction for at least 180degrees beginning at the base of the ground cushion areaand extending outwar

48、d and upward on an 8 to 1 slope (8 out-ward to 1 upward). See Figure 1. For design considerations, aproperly parked helicopter on a multi-helicopter heliport doesnot constitute an approach and departure obstruction. 4.3.2.2 Obstruction Free ZoneThis zone should include an area outward to one-third R

49、Dgreater than diameter OL and also should extend one-third RDbeyond the edge of the approach and departure zone. See Figure 1.4.3.3 SizeHeliport size should depend on platform configurationand equipment arrangement, platform orientation, obstruc-tion clearances, the selected helicopters to be utilized, andprevailing environmental conditions. The heliport groundcushion area should cover a circle of at least one main rotordiameter for helicopters operating at maximum grossweight. See Figure 2. For tandem rotor helicopters, or inharsh environmental areas (such as the Gu
