01 / Context and objective
An existing industrial building treated as one integrated system.
The commission began with the building’s existing layout, structure and established internal functions. The design objective was to integrate the architectural measures and building services required for fire safety while preserving the operational logic of the storage facility.
02 / Design response
Several disciplines consolidated into one controllable design package.
The design was developed from a survey of the existing condition and the building’s operational scenarios. The architectural drawings provided the common coordination base for both passive and active protection measures.
Escape and compartmentation
Coordination of escape routes, access points, doors with specific performance requirements and compartment boundaries within the existing geometry.
Safety systems
Coordination of detection and alarm, emergency lighting, hydrants, automatic suppression, smoke and heat exhaust, and lightning protection systems.
Integrated documentation
Alignment of reports, drawings, the technical assessment and specialist documents into a coherent package for the approval stage.
03 / Technical documentation
Project drawings, published without identifying project-party information.
04 / Scope of appointment
Lead-designer responsibility and multidisciplinary coordination.
