iQ appointed Global to complete an independent PFP survey after issues were raised from previous inspections and a recent Fire Risk Assessment. We assigned our survey team and consultants to carry out an intrusive inspection into the building. Working closely with the Building Management team for Opal Court, we reviewed existing drawings and details to reference against the actual compartmentation build up. From these findings it was evident further fire remedial works were required. The Global team were assigned to complete this.
The remedial works involved updating the internal FR30, FR60 & FR90 walls and 120FR floors to ensure full compartmentation is maintained with manufacturers tested solution and updating retrospective fire stopping that required maintenance.
With the principal aim to upgrade the compartmentation of the building, we phased work across the building to a scheduled programme to ensure disruptions were minimised. All programming and access arrangements were completed by the designated Contract Management with the assistance of our office based Contract Support team. This allowed for an efficient schedule to complete all works. Over 50 Global Technicians deployed on site. All works to be completed against standard manufacturers test details and 3rd party approved under FIRAS scheme on completion.
