2.0 Background
This 30% Basis of Design report is intended to describe the International Terminal boarding
area’s A and G Baggage Handling Systems (BHS) with renovated in-line Checked Baggage
Security Screening systems for the San Francisco International Airport (SFO)
San Francisco International Airport connects with more than 60 U.S. cities on 20 domestic
airlines, and offers direct links to more than 29 worldwide destinations on 25 international
carriers. As of 2009, San Francisco International Airport is the tenth largest airport in the USA
and the twentieth largest in the world. United and American are the two largest carriers and
Virgin America has its principal base of operations in San Francisco.
The International Terminal is a common use facility with all gates and all ticketing areas shared
among all international airlines. Six gates are designed to accommodate the Airbus A380 aircraft.
The San Francisco Airport International Terminal outbound and inbound baggage systems went
into operation September of 2000. There are 12 distinct ticket counter subsystems that transport
baggage to make-up units located in boarding areas “A” and “G”. A multi-level 100% checked
baggage security screening system was integrated into the baggage system. The screening
systems are located on both sides of the International Terminal where bags are inspected and then
conveyed to the Baggage Make-up Areas or the reconciliation room on the Ground level. Also
included in the outbound system are two oversize conveyors with in-line x-ray screening
originating on the departures level and terminating in the Baggage make-up Areas. Automatic 8-
head laser scanner arrays (ATR) are installed on each of the three mainlines that enter each
boarding area sortation system. Bag tags read by the scanner array will be sorted to one of eight
flat plate make-up devices. Crossover conveyor subsystems are provided to transport bags from
either the make-up area A sort system to the make-up area G sort system or vice versa based on
the bag destination. FIS recheck and re-accommodation systems are provided that transport
baggage from the claim hall area to either make-up areas. A domestic to international recheck
transport system is provided from Boarding Area F (United Airlines) to the Boarding Area G
level one security screening system. Three transfer inputs are located in each inbound bag room
area that transports baggage from load conveyors to the security screening area upstream of the
level one security screening.
In July of 2002 the airport initiated the replacement of the Level One AT security baggage
screening machines with TSA certified CTX 9000 machines (eleven total). These machines are
now approaching the end of their useful life. This is the first system installed in the United States
with full level two (OSR) multiplexing capabilities. The construction process required the
installation of two new mezzanine platforms below the existing platforms to support the increased
loads of the EDS equipment.
Many elements were carefully considered while constructing the existing in-line operations
mezzanine, including locating the mezzanine in the best possible area for bag movement and
conveyor installation, use of existing conveyor systems, and structural reinforcement to carry the
loads of the heavy in-line equipment and screening operations.
It is envisioned that the conveyors currently delivering bags for all airlines will still be routed to
the in-line bag screening area on the mezzanine and sorted to the appropriate airline belt once
screened. Below are illustrations of the existing International Terminal boarding areas A and G
CBIS systems:

3.0 Executive Summary
The San Francisco International Airport completed the 10% Pre-Design Phase for the renovation
to the existing Integrated In-line Checked Baggage Inspection System (CBIS) of the existing
International Terminal (IT (boarding areas A and G)). The overall objective of that phase of the
project was to develop a preferred option for a new integrated In-line 100% Checked Baggage
EDS Security Screening and to determine the scope of any required building interface work. The
10% pre-design report was issued to the TSA in October 2010. The information obtained in the
10% Pre-Design Phase assisted SFO with the OTA application process for TSA funding of the
(CBIS) Check Baggage Inspection System Renovation.
The major objectives of the renovation of the integrated In-line CBIS are:
Upgrade the existing in-line EDS checked baggage security screening system to be
certified as per PDGS version 3 as a minimum and achieve optimum performance
Incorporate the latest in-line security screening technology i.e. CTX 9800’s
Improve TSA employee CBRA work areas and ergonomics (i.e. no lift policy)
Provide capacity for future growth
The Basis of Design criteria outlined in this 30% report includes a non-visual statistical output
simulation (reference page xii, Planning Guidelines and Design Standards (PGDS) for Checked
Baggage Inspection Systems, Version 3 dated November 27, 2009) and a simulation/model AVI
of the proposed systems. The objective of the 10% pre-design submission was to support the “In-
Line Support Application”. Specifically:
The airport was seeking approval of the Basis of Design for the optimization of the existing
International Terminal In-line EDS screening systems.
The airport wanted to secure a commitment from the TSA to reconfigure the existing system
as required supporting the new security screening system.
The airport wanted to secure TSA funding for the additional conveyor systems required to
provide an automated inline EDS security screening system that meets the TSA PGDS version
3 compliant criteria.
It should be noted that the Design Team has already submitted the Preferred Alternative Analysis
Report detailing multiple in-line solutions that were evaluated per a qualitative assessment matrix.
This design review package was submitted to the TSA on October of 2010. The result of this was
the signing of an OTA agreement between SFO and the TSA on March 16th, 2011. BNP have
included the preferred analysis in this 30% basis of design report for information purposes only.
3.1 Schematic Design
The International Terminal outbound BHS design/operation is based on the use of
allocated facility space/footprints to accommodate the proposed In-Line EDS renovation
design to minimize expansions to the Terminal building and meet the overall project
budget. Per direction from SFO the overall premise of design of the system is to
accommodate and maintain a “common use” terminal operation
The preferred CBIS in-line EDS Option E is described in detail in Section 9 of this 30%
basis of design document

3.2 Summary of Baggage Processing Requirements:
The starting point of the SFO International Terminal EDS Renovation project was to
determine the processing requirements of the Baggage Handling System (BHS). BNP
performed a numerical analysis based on information and flight schedules provided by
the SFO design team, SFO Operations and BNP’s experience on other similar projects.
The planning assumptions and results of the analysis are detailed within this basis of
design report and have been verified with SFO and the user airlines. The processing
requirements are based on the August 2010 flight schedule. Four additional, future airline
flights have been incorporated into the peak period resulting in maximum gate utilization
and has been approved/confirmed with SFO Operations. A 5.4% annual passenger
growth factor (for International traffic) forms the basis of the forecast to design the BHS.
SFO has also confirmed this annual growth rate which was provided by both the FAA
and SFO Operations. The 2017 (Date of Beneficial Use (DBU) plus 5 years) analysis is
also provided as required by the PDGS Version 3 dated 27 November, 2009. The results
of analysis are summarized below:

3.3 Summary of Cost Estimates for Preferred Option E:
Rough order of magnitude (ROM) budgetary capital costs for the preferred EDS/BHS
system option have been developed and are summarized below (please note that these
BHS costs are subject to revisions as the design proceeds further). The detailed cost
analysis (that includes construction costs) as required by PDGS Version 3 dated 27
November, 2009 is provided in Appendix D of this 30% Basis of Design submittal:

4.0 Planning Premises
The principle planning premises for proposed flight operations at the SFO International Terminal
are described in the following paragraphs. These premises form the basis of the system analysis
and requirements modeling. The information and assumptions used in this study are based on
confirmed data as provided by SFO and BNP’s experience in planning similar Baggage Handling
System projects.
The design criteria that have been developed include:
Baggage Screening Rates
Checked Baggage Inspection System Requirements
4.1 Capacity Planning Schedule
Using the SFO provided August 2010 flight schedules for Boarding Area A and Boarding
Area G, Tuesday schedule was identified as the average peak day schedule, which was
studied for peak hour gate utilization.
Assumptions for Peak flight gating:
1 Hour gating for DOM flights
2 Hour gating for INT flights
Only one Wide body or two/one Narrow body aircraft can be gated at the A1,
A1a, A1b or A3, A3a, A3b, or A10 or A11, A11a, A11b or G99, G99a, G99b or
G101, G101a, G101b. A5 is a single gate (with 2 lead in lines) and cannot
accommodate 2 standard body aircraft at the same time.
Using above assumptions, it can be seen in the peak hour gate utilization chart for
Boarding Area A and G (pages 27 and 28 of this report) that two additional flights (pink
highlighted) have been accommodated in each boarding area to have 100 percent
utilization of the gates. These derived schedules including the additional flights are used
as a basis to develop the Baggage Handling System demand for the respective areas
(reference Appendix A).
4.2 Peak Hour Load Factors
BNP has assumed a 90 percent peak hour load factor for all the flights.
4.3 Peak Hour Traffic Distribution
The peak hour passenger traffic distribution assumed by BNP is:
Distribution Domestic / International
Originating 80%
Transfer / Recheck 20%
TOTAL 100%
Note: Recheck Bags are assumed to be screened in the other terminals.

4.4 Average Number of Bags per Passenger
The average number of checked bags per boarded passenger provided to BNP based on a
departing passenger survey conducted at the Airport in 2008:
Bags per Passenger (BPP)
Domestic International
0.9 1.3
4.5 Oversize and OOG Bags
Five percent of the bags are oversized and two percent of bags are defined to be out-of-
gauge are processed through a separate oversized conveyor lines as per existing SFO
operations (preferred Option has no OOG capabilities).
The total seven percent Oversize and OOG baggage is subtracted from the total
originating baggage rate to represent the screened baggage rate.
4.6 Surge Factor
A surge factor was applied per the TSA Planning Guidelines and Design Standards for
Checked Baggage Inspection Systems (PGDS for CBIS), Version 3.0, dated November
27, 2009:
Section 7.1.1: Equipment requirements should not be based on average baggage flows,
but rather on surged flows obtained by multiplying the average baggage flow by a zone-
specific surge factor* (for each 10-minute bin). The use of a surge factor is
recommended to capture the intrinsic variance of baggage demand and ensure that
equipment requirements are not undersized. The following formula is used to calculate
the surge factor:
SF = x
xx 2
(Where SF is the surge factor and x is the 10-minute baggage flows).
4.7 Growth Rate
Annual Growth Rate for SFO International Airport passengers is as per the forecasted
data provided by Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to Bureau of Planning &
Environmental Affairs.
Assuming DBU (Date of Beneficial Use) year as 2012, the growth factor is applied for
DBU + 5 years for the design requirements of 2017.
Annual Growth Rate 2.6% Domestic Flights
Growth Factor, Current (2010) to Design (2017) for Domestic Flights
= (1 + Annual Growth Rate) ^ (number of years)
= (1 + 0.026) ^7

Annual Growth Rate 5.4% International Flights
Growth Factor, Current (2010) to Design (2017) for International Flights
= (1 + Annual Growth Rate) ^ (number of years)
= (1 + 0.054) ^7
= 1.445
4.8 Check-in Profile
The passenger profile distribution specifies the percentages of passengers that arrive at
the airport a specific number of minutes before their flights. The earliness distributions
are used to determine the flow of departing passengers at the airport.
Following earliness distributions are used to determine the flow of departing passengers
at the airport based on BNP’s experience on similar projects.

5.0 System Analyses
The objective of the system analysis is to develop the baggage system processing and operational
criteria for the capacity study.
5.1 Originating Baggage Requirements
The originating baggage requirements for scheduled flights are developed by applying
the check-in profiles (by STD) to the originating passenger/baggage, volumes which are
calculated as follows:
Originating Baggage = Seats x Load Factor x Originating PAX % x Bags per PAX
Screening baggage rate is the flow of bags that are being screened by the Level 1
screening machine. This does not include Out-of-Gauge (OOG) or Oversize (OS) bags
which bypass the screening machines and are transported directly to an ETD area for
screening. The screening bag rate is calculated by subtracting the percentage of OOG
and OS bags from the previously calculated Originating bag rate.
Screening Bag Rate = Originating Bag Rate – (OOG% + OS %)
5.2 EDS Requirements
Level 1 Machines Requirements
The number of Inline machines required for checked baggage screening is determined by
dividing the screening bag rate by the EDS screening rate.
North (G) NEDS = Screening Bag Rate (BPM) / EDS screening rate (BPM)
= 41 / 10.67
= 3.8
= 4 (roundup (N+1 = 5))
South (A) NEDS = Screening Bag Rate (BPM) / EDS screening rate (BPM)
= 42 / 10.67
= 3.9
= 4 (roundup (N+1 = 5))
Level 2 OSR Operators Requirements
Per the TSA CBIS document, to determine OSR operators, the number of Level 1 EDS
machines required is multiplied by the Level 1 EDS screening rate and the Level 1 alarm
rate (FAEDS) and then divided by the OSR Processing Rate of 180 images per hour (3
images per minute).
NOSR = # EDS machines x EDS screening rate x FAEDS / OSR processing rate
OSR Screening Operators Calculation
= [4 x 640 x XX / 180
= X
= X (roundup) per boarding area

Level 3 ETD Operators Requirements – Screened Bags & OOG Bags
Per the TSA CBIS document, to determine ETD operators, the number of EDS machines
required is multiplied by the Level 1 EDS screening rate, the Level 1 alarm rate (FAEDS)
and the OSR alarm rate (1-CR) OSR including OOG bags (ROOG) and Lost in Track Bags
(RLIT) and then divided by the ETD Processing Rate. There are two (2) ETD operators
per workstation.
NETD = # EDS operators x EDS screening rate x [FAEDS x (1-CR) OSR + ROOG + RLIT] /
ETD screening rate
ETD Screening Operators Calculation
= [4 x 640 x (0.2 x XX) + (0.02 + 0.01)] / 24.2
= XX operators for standard bags per boarding area
ETD Operators for Oversize Bags
Per the PGDS, to determine ETD operators for Oversize Bags, EDS screening rate for
Oversize Bags is multiplied by 60, and then divided by the ETD Processing Rate. There
are two (2) ETD operators per ETD machine.
NETD for OS = EDS screening rate for Oversize Bags x 60 / ETD screening rate for
Oversize Bags
ETD Oversize Operators Calculation
= [43.5 x 0.05 x 60 / 24.2
= 5.4
= X (rounded) per boarding area
Total Number of ETD operators per boarding area
X ETD operators per boarding area

8.0 CBIS Options
8.1 Identification of Initial Options
The design team has explored numerous alternative baggage and EDS screening options
with Option E being the preferred. The other schemes that were considered and
eliminated were as follows (Note: the boarding area A option layout is shown below; the
boarding area G option layout is a mirror image):
Option A uses CTX 9400 and a fully redesigned single CBRA that improves the TSA
employee work areas and ergonomics. OOG and re-insert subsystems cannot be
accommodated in this design and has no ability to handle future growth. There is a
single CBRA resulting in a single point of failure, plus the conveyors downstream of
the EDS device to the CBRA are not PGDS V3 compliant (no dedicated clear bag
lines)
Option B redesigns both the level 1 EDS to accommodate the high throughput CTX
9800 device in conjunction with the redesigned option A CBRA. As per option A,
OOG and re-insert subsystems cannot be accommodated in this design. There is a
single CBRA resulting in a single point of failure, plus the conveyors downstream of
the EDS device to the CBRA are not PGDS V3 compliant (no dedicated clear bag
lines)

Option C is a full redesign of the CBIS that accommodates CTX 9800’s and moves
the CBRA functionality to the mezzanine area. Two – (2) CBRA’s are provided to
provide full redundancy. Also, both OOG and reinsert subsystem have been
incorporated. This option has all the recommended requirements for a high volume
CBIS design per PGDS version 3. This option has the greatest impact on operations
during construction and has a difficult phasing scheme. This option is also the most
expensive at $19.5 million just for the BHS systems.
Option D is a hybrid of option A and option C in that the level 1 area, however can
only accommodate the CTX 9400’s and transports unclear bags to the fully redundant
CBRA’s located on the mezzanine as provided for in Option C. Reinsert lines are

also provided in this option, however no OOG subsystem can be provided. Has
limited ability to handle future growth.
The preferred Option E is described in detail in Section 9.0 of this document.

9.1.1 Preferred Option Description
1 This description of operation is intended to define the unique overall
functional requirements of the BHS control systems that are related to
the operation of the EDS subsystems only (Ticket Counter and
Sortation/Make up System operation are not described). The definitive
architecture, detailed design and any/all coordination required for the
control system design in its entirety, including (but not limited to) the
EDS security system and related BHS/EDS interface requirements,
shall be the responsibility of the BHS Contractor. The operation
described below shall serve as the primary outline for the system to be
provided.
2 The existing three – (3) mainline ticket counter transport conveyors
currently delivering bags for all airlines will still be routed to the
enhanced in-line bag screening area on the East mezzanine and the
clear bags sorted to the appropriate airline make up once screened via
the three (3) existing outbound transport subsystems.

3 The type of EDS device to be provided and integrated into the Baggage
Handling System for this project is the CTX 9800.
4 Live Animal Operations: As per current protocol live animals will be
manually transported from the ticketing area to a pick up point adjacent
to the discharge of the oversize line(s) on the ramp level per current
airline protocol. Screening of animal containers is per local TSA
protocol.
5 Oversize and Out of Gauge (OOG) Operations: As per existing
oversize operations, items that cannot be transported on the standard
conveyor system are handled by the two – (2) existing outbound
oversize systems (one each on the North and South concourses).
Oversize items are screened by the local TSA ETD operation at the
oversize unload conveyor at ramp level, the clear bags are then picked
up by the airline ramp personnel. Suspect oversize items are handled
per local TSA/EOD protocols.
9.1.2 Design Criteria
A. Space Analysis
The International Terminal boarding areas A and G in-line EDS
renovation BHS design/operation is based on the use of existing
allocated facility space/footprints to accommodate the proposed in-line
EDS designs to minimize expansions to the Terminal and meet the
overall project budget.
9.1.3 Key BHS Design Criteria
The following describes the key baggage handling system design criteria for the
In-Line EDS renovation at International Terminal boarding areas A and G:
A. System Performance:
1. The following defines the system performance criteria that the
proposed baggage handling systems must achieve:
a. Provide equipment components and items for a system
equipment life of a minimum of 15 years and an operating duty
cycle of 18 hours a day, 365 days per year. This provision is a
design objective, not a warranty.
b. All components of the system shall be constructed in accordance
with all codes, standards and local laws and regulations,
applicable to the design and construction of this type of
equipment, which are generally accepted and used as good
practice throughout the industry, i.e., NFPA, Underwriters,
OSHA, SAE publications, National Electrical Code (NEC),
American National Standards. Design all parts and sub-
assemblies in accordance with good commercial practice and
assure safe, efficient and practical design in keeping with
requirements peculiar to this type of system.

c. The system can be easily and economically enhanced to meet the
future requirements in the next fifteen (15) years.
d. The BHS system with in-line EDS Security Screening shall
screen all originating ticket counter and FIS rechecked baggage
based on current TSA protocols.
e. Each subsystem of the BHS shall have an availability of not less
than 0.995 (99.5%) to be calculated on a monthly basis.
However, the maximum allowable downtime in a single
operating day shall be no more than 15 minutes on one
subsystem; additionally the accumulative downtime for all
subsystems shall not exceed 20 minutes.
f. No more than one failure per month of one of the PLC’s, and any
other control equipment within of any slave/master pair shall be
acceptable.
g. The maximum downtime where both slave / master PLC’s,
computer system etc. fail simultaneously shall be 10 minutes in a
year.
h. Tracking accuracy shall be defined as the percentage of
successfully tracked bags from an encoding position (e.g. EDS
device, etc.) to the final output device. Tracking accuracy in the
EDS system shall be a minimum of 97.0% (due to BRL being
provided (per PGDS V3 7.2.5.3)) calculated on a monthly basis,
for the total number of bags input into the baggage system.
Tracking accuracy is a measure of the system’s ability to identify
and control the location of the baggage from the point of
encoding to the correct output. Bags that have been proven to
have lost tracking within the CTX 9800 security screening
device will not be counted against the 97% tracking accuracy
figure.
i. The maximum acceptable bag jam rate shall be 1% based on the
number of bags inducted into the system during a 24 hour period.
No more than 3 bags real or virtual will be involved in any given
jam event.
j. The EDS “Fail Safe” rate shall be less than 0.5% of the total bag
volume, measured by the actual number of bags tripping the fail
safe (per PDGS V3 – 7.2.9.1).
B. The system design shall also pay particular attention to the following
requirements as established by the TSA within the CBIS:
1. Cost effectiveness while providing the levels of security and
performance in passenger level-of-service.
2. High throughput capacity
3. Energy conservation
4. Satisfactory environment

Page 35
5. Operational flexibility
6. Deliver bags with spacing that will sustain the throughput of the
CTX 9800 (no less than 12 inches (per PGDS V3 7.2.1.2))
7. Provide easy access to the level 3 baggage inspection areas for
the EOD robot in the event a bag fails level 3 inspections.
8. Safe and efficient use of space for maintenance and TSA staff at
entry/exit points and within working spaces.
10. Manual re-induction line that will transport bags from the level 3
baggage inspection areas (CBRA) to merge upstream of the EDS
loop.
11. Consideration of the amount of time a bag is in the system i.e.
95th percentile to arrive at diversion to the make-up system
within 10 minutes from induction onto the ticket counter load
conveyor (per PGDS V3 7.2.3.1).
12. Provide conveyors at either end of the CTX 9800 that are easily
removable to allow for the removal of the EDS device in the
event of a catastrophic failure or through changes in technology.
13. Sufficient level 2 OSR travel time (typically 45 seconds from the
exit of the device to the final decision point) is provided (per
PDGS V3 7.2.4.1).
14. Flexible design to allow for changes in screening protocol and/or
future upgraded security technologies.
15. High storage capacity upstream of merge points to absorb input
peaks, etc., without system saturation.
16. Multiple flow paths to permit continued operations despite
equipment failure and/or momentary peaks.
17. Default capability (anti-grid lock) to ensure that in the case of
saturation of any subsystem a back-up and fail-safe alternate
process path or discharge point is available (i.e., in no case shall
total system saturation occur).
18. Positive bag tracking shall be of shift register methodology using
a unique BHS tracking ID number; the use of FIFO shall not be
implemented.
C. Tracking on conveyors shall employ shaft encoders and strategically
located photoelectric sensors for verification. The system shall retain all
tracking information during an e-stop event.
D. Identification of out of gauge (OOG) bags (for the CTX 9800 device
shall be accomplished by the use of photocell baggage measuring array
installed prior to the ED’s machines. OOG bags shall be stopped and
removed manually to the Oversize CBRA area below the mezzanine.
E. The BHS system shall interface directly with the CTX 9800 security
screening devices. Allow for the transmission of data pertaining to

9.1.4 Description of Operation
A. EDS security subsystem operation:
1. Level 1 – EDS screening in the “Automatic” mode: All
originating “in-gauge” checked bags shall be routed to a CTX
9800 device for security screening. The CTX 9800 device
software will automatically scan each bag. The CTX 9800
device will provide a status for the bag “clear” or “decision
pending” based on the assessment of the images and notifies the
BHS via the CTX 9800 / BHS interface. “Clear” Level 1 bags
will be routed to the sortation system using the most direct route.
2. Level 2 – On Screen Resolution (OSR) operation: Baggage that
receives a “Suspect” status from the CTX 9800 device will have
the suspect image delivered via the security interface network to
the OSR control room (level 2). The images shall be received
and displayed on monitors in the existing OSR control room
(located in Boarding Area G). An operator will view the image
in the display for a configurable time duration utilizing Threat
Resolution Tools (TRT) to determine if the bag is “Clear” or
“Suspect”. If the operator determines that the bag is suspect or
the allocated time period expires (typically 45 seconds), and no
decision has been rendered, the image and relevant bag will be
given a “Suspect” level 2 status and routed to the baggage
inspection room (CBRA) for review and appropriate handling.
“Clear” level 2 bags will be routed directly to the sortation
system.
3. Level 3 – Explosive Trace Detection (ETD) operation: Bags
with a “Suspect” Level 2 status will be transported to the new
mezzanine located CBRA room for further inspections and
appropriate handling (ETD). Cleared level 3 bags would be re-
introduced into the system via the clear bag subsystems
subsystem(s). “Failed” level 3 bags shall be handled per the local
EOD protocol.

International Terminal 30% Basis of Design Report
In-Line EDS Optimization May 30, 2011
Page 41
B. Each of the individual ED lines shall contain a number of queuing
conveyors upstream of the CTX 9800 device, which shall provide
separation of the bags and buffer the input flow to the individual
machines and allow for a balanced distribution of the bags among the
available equipment. Bags will be distributed to each EDS device by one
of two methods (either mode can be selected manually or automatically
in the BHS Control Room (implementation of these modes will be
described in detail in the 70% submittal)):
1. Round robin – utilized during periods of low bag volume
2. First available – implemented during peak bag volume, to attain
maximum throughput of a device
C. As soon as an ED line becomes unavailable (jam, motor overload, EDS
device failure etc.), the HSD feeding that ED line shall immediately
cease sending bags to that CTX 9800 device. Should bags be queued
upstream of the CTX 9800 device after it has become inactive, an
appropriate graphical/textual alarm shall be raised at the MDS indicating
this situation.
D. All ED line queue conveyors installed prior to and after the CTX 9800
devices shall have under slung motors installed to allow easy access to
the CTX 9800 device(s) by TSA agents who are responsible for both
testing and clearing of CTX 9800 internal bag jams.
E. Upon bag arrival, at the conveyor directly interfacing any of the CTX
9800 devices, the BHS shall, through the BHS-EDS interface(s), “hand
over” the bag to the CTX 9800 device by sending (or receiving) a 10-
digit dummy bag ID number. The BHS system shall track that baggage
item with the unique 10-digit dummy # until diverted to the clear bag
transport line.
F. The CTX 9800 device software will automatically scan each bag. The
CTX 9800 device will provide a status for the bag “clear” or “decision
pending” based on the assessment of the images and notifies the BHS via
the CTX 9800 / BHS interface.
1. All bags will be tracked in dynamic PLC RAM via a memory
model from first point of ID and tracking actually ends at the
entrance to the CTX 9800 device or the handoff point to the
CTX 9800 device since the CTX 9800 device takes over.
Tracking starts again at the handoff point from the CTX 9800
device to the BHS. The memory model will be updated in real-
time to reflect the position of the bag on every conveyor.
2. All “clear” level 1 bags will be diverted from the ED line by the
high speed diverters located downstream of the EDS device to
clear bag lines for transportation to the existing make-up units
located on the ramp level.
G. Level 2 Screening:
San Francisco International Airport
International Terminal 30% Basis of Design Report
In-Line EDS Optimization May 30, 2011
Page 42
1. Baggage that receives a “Decision Pending” status will have the
suspect image delivered via the security interface network to the
EDS security monitoring area (level 2). The images shall be
received and displayed on monitors in the common use OSR
room (located in Terminal 6).
2. An operator will view the image in the display for configurable
time duration. If the allocated time period expires, and no
decision has been rendered, the image and relevant bag will be
given a “Suspect” level-2 status and routed to the CBRA
inspection area via the suspect bag (AL) subsystems.
3. The level-2 operator will press the “Clear” button for resolved
alarms.
a. These bags will be assigned a “Clear” level-2 status. The
clear bags will be diverted to the Clear Bag mainline for
subsequent sortation to a make-up device.
b. The information will be transmitted back to the BHS via the
CTX 9800 / BHS interface.
c. The BHS will update the information referenced to the ID#
and continue to track the bag and route the bag to the clear
bag line for sortation to the output destination.
4. An operator will press the “Unclear” button for images that
cannot be resolved in this process.
a. These bags will be assigned a “Suspect” level 2 status.
b. The information will be transmitted back to the BHS via the
CTX 9800 / BHS interface.
c. The BHS will update the information referenced to the ID#
and continue to track the bag through the level 3-diversion
point.
d. “Suspect” level 2 bags will be diverted to the suspect bag
subsystem for subsequent transport to the respective CBRA
inspection area.
H. Level 3 Screening:
1. All CBRA (level 3) designs and operations will comply with the
TSA’s PGDS V3.0
2. As a bag enters the CBRA it will initially be conveyed to the
furthest available/active ETD baggage removal point (BRP). If
additional bags are following upstream they will queue at the
next upstream queue conveyors.
3. The following is the initial screen displayed when a valid bag
first triggers the BRP photocell and stops at that removal
conveyor:
San Francisco International Airport
International Terminal 30% Basis of Design Report
In-Line EDS Optimization May 30, 2011
Page 43
d. When a bag triggers the active BRP’s head end photocell
the baggage status and bag information shall be displayed
on the bag status display (BSD) associated with that BRP.
The BRP BSD will display the following:
1. Enabled softkey – pressing will disable the BRP. The
removal queue will still act as a queue conveyor if there
are additional BRPs downstream.
2. Status and Data Bar
a. Which screening device the bag was screened by
b. BAG (Pseudo) ID number
c. BHS PLC or CTX 9800 PLC generated ID number
d. Bag Status
3. Direction Guidance Bar – Present clear feedback to
provide a controllable action by the TSA operator
4. Action Bar – Location where all TSA soft key inputs
will take place
a. All available BIT stations (green) and all non active
or occupied BIT stations (red)
b. Print Tag Data option.
4. A TSO will then select from the BSD action bar the baggage
inspection table (BIT) where they would like the bag information
transferred to. This bag information will then be displayed at the
BSD located at the BIT the TSO has selected. As a positive
feedback method, the BRP display will momentarily highlight
the selected BIT softkey to indicate to the TSO that the
information had been transferred to the inspection table display.
Once data transfer has been confirmed the TSA can slide the bag
from the BRP to the inspection table. After the BRP photocell
has been unblocked for 5 seconds (adjustable in the PLC) the
San Francisco International Airport
International Terminal 30% Basis of Design Report
In-Line EDS Optimization May 30, 2011
Page 44
queue conveyor will re-activate to allow additional bags to be
conveyed past if there are additional available BRPs
downstream.
5. Once the information is transferred to the BIT display, the BIT
position will be indicated as a red color on the removal display to
indicate that position is in process and already has a bag at that
table. The system will be designed to prevent a second bag from
becoming staged at the BRP adjacent to the unavailable BIT if
there are other BITs available downstream.
6. The BIT display will have the following information displayed:
1. BHS or EDS Pseudo ID – This should also have a
background color behind the text indicating the bag
status, cleared = green, alarmed = red, errored / EDS
unknown = yellow, BHS Unknown = blue, OG =
Orange
2. TRANSFER TO BVS softkey
3. VIEW LOST BAGS softkey
4. ENABLED softkey
5. BAG CLEARED – time stamps the associated bag,
and re-activates the BIT
7. The TSO will press the TRANSFER TO BVS input to transfer
the bag ID information to the CTX 9800 BVS network through a
serial interface connection. If the BVS network is able to find
the indicated bag information with an image, the image will be
recalled up on the BVS screens.
8. After pulling up an associated image and screening the bag, the
TSO will press the BAG CLEARED softkey to time stamp the
inspected bag (associated with the bag ID) and reactivate the
BIT, then slide the cleared bag onto the CLx clear bag line using
sliding top ETD tables.
San Francisco International Airport
International Terminal 30% Basis of Design Report
In-Line EDS Optimization May 30, 2011
Page 45
9. If the furthest downstream BIT station is indicated as
DISABLED, the system will not convey a bag to that removal
point; instead it will stop the bag at the next available upstream
BRP.
10. For all non-valid bags that local TSA protocol requires to be
reinserted upstream of the CBIS for rescreening, the BRP BSD
will display on its DIRECTION GUIDANCE bar that the bag is
non-valid. The TSA operator then has the option to select a BIT
to transfer the bag data to or they can dispatch the bag to the
reinsertion line. After TSA activates the reinsert dispatch key,
the bag will continue to be transported down the AL alarm line
tracked by the PLC as a “reinsert bag”. If the bag queues at any
downstream BRP, the associated BSD will indicate that the bag
is destined for the reinsert line and is not to be removed. The
BHS PLC will then automatically transfer the bag from the last
AL removal queue onto the first conveyor of the reinsert line.
The reinsert line will only start up after a TSA agent has
activated the “DISPATCH TO REINSERT” soft key on the
BSD.
11 In total there are anticipated to be 12 baggage removal points in
the each boarding area CBRA room, the rooms will be designed
using the following criteria:
San Francisco International Airport
International Terminal 30% Basis of Design Report
In-Line EDS Optimization May 30, 2011
Page 46
a. Each CBRA room will be fully enclosed to aid in
keeping ambient noise levels to a minimum.
b. Fatigue matting will be installed throughout the CBRA
room in coordination with the design team architect.
c. Conveyor shrouding with toe-kicks will be installed
along the entire ALx alarm line and on the CLx clear bag
line located inside the CBRA area.
12. The method to provide a no-lift solution for the local TSOs has
yet to be developed, but it’s anticipated that sliding top ETD
tables will be installed to ensure all bags are transitioned in an
ergonomically and non-abrasive manner.
13. A single Dymo type thermal printer will be located as dictated
by local TSA inside the CBRA (total of two –(2) for each the
BAA and BAG CBRA rooms). The printer will print bag data
from any BRP BSD in the event CBRA demand becomes surged
and bags need to be staged on the floor until the surge subsides,
and screening can catch up with the incoming demand.
14. An E-STOP lanyard will be installed across the entire AL and
CB conveyor line to ensure each TSO has an emergency stop
method within arm’s reach. Once the lanyard has been pulled, a
single re-start control station will be located at the downstream
end of the alarm line to reset the system and start the conveyors.
15. A reinsert line RI is directly interfaced with the AL alarm line to
provide a no-lift solution for any bag that is required to be
reinserted upstream of the CBIS. Reference section 4.6 for a
description of the reinsert line. Clear level 3 bags will be re-
inducted into the system via the Clear Bag line for subsequent
transport to the baggage sortation system.
I. Fail Safe - Clear Bag (CB) Diversion
San Francisco International Airport
International Terminal 30% Basis of Design Report
In-Line EDS Optimization May 30, 2011
Page 47
1. The Control system shall provide for fail-safe controls at the
Vertical Sorters and HSD diverters to the CB or AL subsystems
to ensure that all bags that are supposed to be diverted to the
suspect bag or make up system are actually diverted. Failsafe
photocells shall be employed on the mainline immediately
downstream of the diverters. When a bag is supposed to be
diverted to this line, the receiving conveyor shall verify that the
bag is received and the photocell immediately downstream of the
diverter on the mainline shall verify that no bag is detected in the
window where this bag was or no unknown bag is found prior to
another successfully tracked bag passing this photocell. If the
bag is not verified to be received on the CB/AL conveyor or a
bag is seen on the mainline that should have been diverted, stop
the mainline, raise an alarm at the MDS identifying a failed to
divert bag at the CB/AL subsystems and include the bag ID in
the alarm (to assist staff in finding the bag that failed to divert).
Require reset of this condition, after clearance of the alarm
condition, to restart that mainline (use the appropriate local start
pushbutton to actually restart the subsystem).
J. Re-Insert Line:
1. For all non-valid bags required by local TSA protocol to be
rescreened by the Level 1 EDS devices, a reinsert conveyor line
RIx has been designed to allow a direct transport solution from
the discharge end of the alarm line to the charge end of the
reinsert subsystem.
2. At each BRP BSD, the TSA operator will have the option to
assign the bag as a reinsert bag (only if it has a non-valid status).
The BHS PLC will then track this bag down the remaining AL
queue conveyors and transfer the bag from the last downstream
AL BRP to the charge end of the RI conveyor. The RI
subsystem will only start up once the BHS PLC receives the
input that the DISPATCH TO REINSERT softkey of the BSD
has been activated.
K. E-Stop Functionality:
1. Activation of any CTX 9800 E-stop will stop the associated ED
subsystem conveyors and CTX 9800 device.
2. Activation of an ED conveyor subsystem E-stop shall not E-stop
the CTX 9800.
3. The BHS PLC control system shall retain all bag tracking data
during an e-stop event.
L. EDS Test Mode
1. The control station located at the entrance conveyor of each CTX
9800 device shall be provided with a NORMAL/TEST mode
San Francisco International Airport
International Terminal 30% Basis of Design Report
In-Line EDS Optimization May 30, 2011
Page 48
keyed selector switch on the front panel. The key shall be
removable only in the NORMAL mode.
a. In the NORMAL mode the BHS shall operate as already
outlined in this document.
b. When in the TEST mode the BHS Contractor will ensure
the entrance and exit conveyors are running this will allow
TSA personnel to carry out mandated daily CTX 9800 IQ
test regardless if the remainder of the bag system is up and
running (i.e. auto shutdown).
c. In the TEST mode (primarily used by the TSA and/or MDI
for testing/calibration of the CTX 9800), all bags input for
testing shall stop upon reaching the head end photocell of
the CTX 9800 device exit interface conveyor. The test bag
shall require removal by the TSA agent, who would then

phase, 60 Hz, 480-Volt. There are 1000 amps of the 3000 being utilized in the
existing systems, therefore an additional 2000 amps needs to be provided for the
new system. Actual power requirements will be further refined as the design
progresses through the design development phase.
B. The BHS Motor Control Panels (MCP) along with the power supply from the
MCP’s to the BHS conveyor equipment, including the associated BHS electrical
field components will be specified under the BHS specification to be provided by
the BHS Contractor.
C. The BHS power requirements are based on a 3-phase, 60 Hz, 480-Volt power
supply. Control voltage is based on 120 volt, 60 HZ, single-phase. Two separate
power feeds should be provided for each MCP, a 480V for the conveyor motors and
120V power supply for the MCP’s interior maintenance light and receptacle. For
coordination purposes, it should be noted that the 480V and 120V power supply for
the various MCP’s will be specified under Division 16, and to be provided by the
electrical design/build contractor at the coordinated MCP locations. Specified
requirements (for both power supplies) should include each MCP power drop point
to be comprised of a conduit and cable in an appropriately sized junction box,
connected at its source to an appropriately sized circuit breaker located at the facility
substation. Additional power drop point (if required) should terminate in close
proximity to the respective MCP location(s), with a 20’ coiled cable which will be
utilized to wire in the MCP’s main power disconnect panel.
D. The electrical supply distribution system shall be designed to provide flow
redundancy in all cases, in effect creating two independently powered baggage-
handling systems. For example, portions of the system are powered (and controlled)
from independent conduit feeds, motor control panels, 480 volt MCP feeders,
switchgear buses, transformers and high voltage feeders, such that a failure of any
power source element will not affect any more than 50% of the BHS processing
capability of multiple subsystems of the same type. The International Terminal
boarding area A and G BHS/EDS system will be designed to ensure both power and
control system design (including data communications highways, UPS etc.) are
based on a minimum requirement of 50% systems redundancy.
9.10 ETD/EDS Power Requirements (Based On CTX 9800 Units)
A. The main system power at the CTX 9800 unit is 480V, with a voltage tolerance of
+10%/-10%, 60Hz and a 40-amp service. The In-Line EDS will include a total of
five (5) security-screening machines. The required power feeds and related UPS
units, as detailed in the supplier’s literature, are required for each machine; these
should be specified under Division 16, to be provided by the design/build electrical
contractor at the coordinated Explosive Detection System locations.
B. In addition to the above noted requirements, it is recommended that convenience
outlets (for tools and test equipment) be provided both at the scanner locations and
at the workstation areas
C. For the ETD areas within the Terminal boarding area A and G bag room space,
please reference the appropriate ETD specifications,

D. The estimated power consumption for the CTX 9800 is 9.7 kilowatts per hour per
device (48.5 kilowatts per hour for the five – (5) CTX 9800 devices per boarding
area)
9.11 BHS Maintenance Utility Receptacles
A. It is recommended that Division 16 include installation requirements for BHS
maintenance utility receptacles (120VAC, 20 ampere grounded duplex receptacles)
to be provided along the new conveyor line paths (e.g., at the drive locations, on
long conveyors). The design objective for the maintenance outlets should be to
provide a sufficient number of receptacles so that all areas requiring maintenance on
the Baggage Handling System is not farther than 30 feet from a receptacle to permit
the use of small power tools with a 50 foot (maximum) extension cord.
9.12 Other Design Considerations
A. The following are design considerations for the International Terminal CBIS/BHS
system:
1. Motor Control Panel (MCP) areas: BHS MCP’s will be located within the
existing security screening matrix area. MCP sizes and locations will be
coordinated during design development.
2. Removable conveyors are to be provided at the CTX 9800 devices to allow
devices that have had a catastrophic failure or are being replaced due to
advances in technology to be removed with the minimum of impact on the
rest of the system.
3. Fire/Sprinkler System Interlock Requirements: The BHS Contractor will be
required to coordinate and provide the necessary interlocks/controls at the
new BHS motor control panel(s) to shut down the conveyor line(s) when an
activation signal is received from the wet/dry sprinkler system (to be
provided by others). Activation of any sprinkler zone associated with the
baggage handling system shall initiate shutdown sequence of all baggage
handling conveyors in the respective zone. The BHS Contractor will only be
required to provide the necessary interface to each of the BHS motor control
panels to accommodate the function; all required conduit and wiring from the
fire system to the BHS motor control panel should be specified to be
provided by the Fire System Contractor.
9.13 BHS Environment Requirements
A. The CTX 9800 environmental operating envelope is:
Temperature: 15-120°F
Humidity 10-85% non-condensing
B. The total weight of the CTX 9800 is 16,800 lbs with a floor loading of
approximately 488 lb/sq ft (based on average floor loading at machine feet).
C. BHS components will be specified to be designed/engineered to operate
satisfactorily in its respective environment as follows:
1. Mechanical - Indoor (Bagroom Environment)
Temperature: 32° to 120° F (0° to 45°C)

C. It was assumed that installation of the modified in-line system would begin in
2011 and that the DBU of the in-line system would be in 2012.
D. All CTX 9800 machines were assumed to be refurbished after 7 years and
replaced with new machines 4 years later.
E All maintenance costs were assumed to be covered by the manufacturer during the
first year of operation of a new EDS machine.
F Using expert judgment, incremental BHS operating costs were calculated at 10% of
the screening equipment operating costs.
G It was assumed that the EDS machine residual value equals the disposal cost of
the EDS machine. As these two costs balance each other, they were not included
in the calculations.
10.2 Several qualitative criteria were used to assess the alternatives based on expert judgment,
namely:
A Customer level of service – the effect that each alternative would have on the
passenger’s experience at SFO.
B Effect on SFO international terminal operations – the reliability and
maintainability of the EDS equipment and the contingency procedures that could
be implemented if a machine were inoperative during a peak period, as well as the
effect that the alternative would have on the airlines.
C Economic considerations – the costs associated with TSA staff salaries and with
implementing and maintaining the alternative.
E. Design criteria – the effect that the alternative would have on existing facilities
as well as the ease with which the alternative could be constructed or expanded.

10.4 Preferred Alternative Phasing and Constructability Technical Memoranda
A. SFO International Terminal is a fully operational terminal; the BHS/CBIS project
in both the North and South concourses will be executed in the following phases
during the off-hours.
B. Phase (1) – Design Development (30%, 70%) will be provided by BNP
Associates,
C. 100% and Construction Documents will be provided by the BHS Design-Builder.
D. As this BHS/CBIS project moves forward the TSA requires that the design meets
their planning guidelines and design standards for Check Baggage Inspection
Systems (Version 3.0). There are (3) remaining design phases that need to be
completed:
E. Detailed Design
1. This deliverable contains (3) sub-phases including;
30% Design Phase (BNP)
70% Design Sub-Phase (BNP)
100% Design Sub-Phase (BHS Design-Builder)
F. Construction Phase
1 Over-sight of the successful BHS Contractor
2 Testing and Commissioning over-sight (per the TSA PGDS v3)
3 Operational Training over-sight
4 Phasing is somewhat sophisticated since the new system will be located on
a existing mezzanine above the current inbound baggage operation. The
“In-Line” baggage screening system will require new EDS machines
(supplied by the TSA), so the existing screening operation can continue in
the existing building until the new baggage system and new EDS machines
are installed and commissioned in phases. The following briefly describes
the North phasing the South will be very similar.
5 Phase 1 will involve the demolition of the existing conveyors on the
mezzanine that housed the level 3 devices and rerouting of the existing first
suspect bag divert to still allow suspect bags to be transported to the
existing CBRA area located on the ramp level floor.
6 Phase 2 will be the installation on the mezzanine of the redundant CBRA’s.
Construction of the rooms to house the CBRA’s will also be performed this
phase.
7 Phase 3 will be the demolition/reconfiguration of the first 2 CTX 9000 ED
lines and the installation of the first CTX 98000. ISAT of this line and the
CBRA will be preformed.
8 Phase 4 Removal of the next CTX 9000 and installation of CTX 9800
number two. A second ISAT will be performed
San Francisco International Airport

Page 61
9 Phase 5 Removal of the next CTX 9000 and installation of CTX 9800
number three. A third ISAT will be performed.
10 Phase 6 has the removal of the last two –(2) CTX 9000’s, reconfiguration
of the entrance and exit conveyors and the installation of the last two – (2)
CTX 9800’s and final ISAT followed by full system rate and throughput
tests.
10.5 Project Schedule
A The overall project schedule that will detail CTX 9800 delivery dates will be
developed and provided upon confirmation of funding agreement between SFO and
the TSA. It is anticipated that installation will commence in the 1st quarter of 2011.
