Project Outcome
Each home features exceptional design and high-quality finishes, with easy access over the river to Caversham—an ideal destination known for its upscale wine bars, restaurants, and boutique shops. The development benefits from comprehensive fire protection measures to ensure the safety of all residents.
The project features a Category 3 sprinkler system that provides full coverage for all residential flats, ancillary rooms and shared common areas. With a dedicated sprinkler alarm panel. Designed to meet the latest fire safety standards, this system offers rapid and reliable response in the event of a fire. It incorporates an Ordinary Hazard sprinkler installation in the undercroft car park, extending protection to this critical area. Additional measures and close consultation with the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) have been implemented to ensure compliance and system robustness.
The sprinkler system is served off a shared pump and tank, efficiently supplying both the sprinkler and domestic water systems. A PDV and dedicated sprinkler risers have been installed to maintain the necessary pressure and flow rates, ensuring optimal operation of the sprinkler heads during an emergency.
