East Tower Brisbane Transit Centre

Appointment

Egress Design Study and Fire Engineering

Overview

Fire Check Consultants (FCC) were appointed to undertake an egress design study of the existing building development.

The East Tower consists of 12 floors and rises above the transit centre. The tower provides office accommodation for a range of business types including Telstra et al. The building is fully fire sprinkler protected. The Transit Centre was originally built in the 1980’s, prior to the introduction of the Building Code of Australia.

The building was proposed for alterations (stairways). FCC reviewed the circulation stair proposal in details to ensure compliance with the building standards at the time of construction.
