Grovesnor Waterside

Client: St James Urban Living
Architect: Sheppard Robson
Service: Fan Assisted Smoke Venting System | Car Park Ventilation

Situated around the historic dock just north of Chelsea Bridge, Grosvenor Waterside is a landmark residential development that comprises a series of exclusive apartments.

The new mixed use scheme provides over 600 studio, one, two and three bedroom apartments, and single and two storey penthouses with a range of amenities and services including fitness centre, spa, restaurant, retail suite, concierge and security services, and private underground parking. Surrounded by the picturesque scenery of tree lined promenades, the river and a city skyline, it is a prestigious place to be.

Fire Design Solutions designed, supplied and installed a comprehensive turnkey fire safety package. This included the company's Fan Assisted Smoke Venting System (FAS) and impulse car park ventilation system.

Faced with a short timescale, Fire Design Solutions rationalised the original design on one of the blocks, using the existing 1.5m2 natural smoke shafts as the basis for the FAS, which was more cost effective. On other blocks, the engineered system's efficiency allowed the number of smoke shafts to be halved and achieved significant cost savings over a natural concept.
