Floating Airports explores a cutting-edge solution to airport congestion and land scarcity: constructing airport runways on water. This approach offers relief for densely populated urban areas, potentially reducing noise pollution and minimizing land acquisition. The book examines the architectural and technological innovations required to make floating airports a reality. For example, the book analyzes how concrete pontoons and artificial islands can serve as stable platforms, while wave dampening technologies can increase safety and stability.

The book progresses through engineering principles, technological innovations, and environmental impacts. It assesses the viability of floating airports by analyzing case studies of existing floating structures like offshore platforms. This approach provides a practical understanding of the challenges and solutions involved.

The book also delves into the potential effects on marine ecosystems and the economic benefits of increased airport capacity, making it a valuable resource for airport planners, architects, and policymakers interested in sustainable development.
