Commercial
Interactive have been involved with many commercial projects spanning many business sectors, however for the purposes of this overview we will discuss office accommodation.
In office buildings, the occupants are generally considered to be awake and familiar with their surroundings, consequently fire strategies are evacuate on detection or phased evacuation.
Our systems can operate autonomously or work in conjunction with building fire detection and alarm systems. Our sophisticated control packages are able to display the system status for the Fire Officer at their point of entry or remotely as a service/maintenance facility.
Floor levels greater than 18m above the Fire and Rescue Service entry level, require a ventilated firefighting shaft. This is also the case for deep or large basements.
We use mechanical smoke control for extended travel distances and pressurisation systems for buildings exceeding 30m high. Also using the pressurisation systems to protect single stairs larger than 11m.
