What Is the Height, Width and Depth of a Sebo X7?
shift to industrialised construction.
In the UK, the British Standard has a blanket statement requiring fume stacks be either 3m high or 25% the building height – whichever is greater.For tall buildings this can lead to very high stacks that would impact the building’s appearance and will likely require Planning Permission.
For example, a 10-storey office building with an average floor to floor height of 4m would require a stack 10m tall (nearly 3 storeys.)There are a few ways to challenge this, including CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) modelling and the use of alternative discharge stacks (e.g.strobic fans), which may be necessary for some office to lab conversions.
Of course, local standards elsewhere will vary.. 5.Existing office buildings may struggle to accommodate new laboratory utility plant and distribution.. A typical lab will consume two to five times as much energy as an office and may also have additional back-up power requirements.
This means more power and cooling, and therefore more plant (e.g.
chillers, heat pumps, generators, UPS) and distribution which can be difficult to install due to lack of space.These design solutions can be assessed and compared for optimisation of flows, simplicity of enabling works (cut and fill, extent of utilities works) etc..
This is not a complete design solution but can quickly generate a working feasibility model so clients can make highly informed decisions in days or weeks and at a fraction of the cost of a non ‘reference design’ approach.Clients can even take a virtual tour to aid their insight, feedback and input.
The design and procurement stages that follow can then also be compressed through focusing time and effort only on the bespoke elements of the largely standardised design.This approach has been enormously powerful for our clients: the ability to rapidly assess the viability of sites has saved months of uncertainty and prevented the inefficiency of wasted work..
