The building is consisted of office, retail, and car park and has a rise in storeys of 14. The effective height of the building is 46.6 m. FCC provided performance based design solutions for –
- Rationalisation of the required fire resistance level;
- Extended travel distances;
- Fire isolated stair discharge into the entry lobby; and
- Circulation stair connecting up to 5 office levels.
The fire engineering design solutions formulated focused on rationalising building fire resistance levels,extended travel distances,fire-isolated passageway construction and compartmentation. In addition, FCC also involved with BOQ fit-out floor 3 to 7, and fire alarm and occupant warning system matrix.
