RANDOLPH HOTEL, OXFORD
The client required RIBA stage 2/3 advice and support from Fire
Safety Engineers with specialist heritage experience. Initial
investigations were carried out to assess and catalogue the
various materials used in the makeup of the building. This
showed many were not suitable for modern safety
recommendations and highlighted that any fire safety strategy
could not rely on the premise of fire resisting compartmentation.
An evacuation model was generated and it was determined that
a water mist system should be used to ensure adequate escape
routes remained viable and that the lower volume of water
discharged would be less damaging to the historic timbers and
hotel contents.
BILBURY COURT HOTEL
THE LANGHAM, LONDON
This historic 1633 Elizabethan Manor House has been
extensively refurbished. The strategy for upgrading included the
elimination of exterior stairs added in the 1930s. Due to the
existing conditions, including voids and continuous attic space,
Kiwa Fire Safety Compliance designed a sympathetic sprinkler
system that enabled historic features to be retained and the
maximum flexibility in terms of interior design.
One of the largest and best known traditional style grand hotels
in London. Kiwa Fire Safety Compliance were commissioned to
advise on bespoke fire compartmentation works to the
protected means of escape, as well as to review the fire
performance of the existing and proposed measures and to
provide design advice and bespoke specifications for upgrading
methods that were sensitive to the historic nature of the
building.
HOLIDAY INN, WINNERSH
Following rejection of the building regulation submission, Kiwa
were appointed and provided a successful fire strategy allowing
the architectural design to progress without alteration, by
justification and approval of the means of escape and fire service
access & facilities, which were not code compliant. Kiwa Fire
Safety Compliance also provided the Pre-Occupation Risk
Assessments.
