Challenges and Solutions
Fire Safety Requirements: The project involved installing multiple fire-rated systems, including doors and screens, to ensure compliance with stringent fire safety standards. W2W collaborated closely with the design team and suppliers to source certified fire-rated materials that met both regulatory and aesthetic requirements.
Structural Constraints: The existing building structure presented challenges, particularly with accommodating the new partitions and balustrades within the available space. Careful planning and custom solutions were employed to ensure that all systems integrated seamlessly into the building’s layout without compromising functionality or design.
Timeline Management: The project required adherence to a tight deadline, with an expected completion date of June 2024. To meet this deadline, W2W implemented rigorous project management and scheduling, ensuring all tasks were completed on time while maintaining high standards of quality.
Solution Implementation
1. Design and Planning:
W2W worked closely with the design team to create detailed design drawings that incorporated the Optima and Q-Railing systems. The plans adhered to fire safety regulations and addressed the building’s structural constraints while aligning with the overall vision for the project.
2. Material Procurement:
High-quality materials, including fire-rated doors, partitions, and balustrades, were sourced from leading suppliers such as Optima Partitions, Tipperary Glass, Proline Hardware, and Q-Railing. Coordination with these suppliers ensured that materials were delivered to the site on time and met all specifications.
3. Installation:
- Partition Systems: W2W’s team installed the Optima Revolution 54+ single-glazed partitions with 4mm clear system dry joints, providing a sleek and modern aesthetic.
