OVERVIEW

OVERVIEW

This project we provided our Series 2 freestanding plant deck, with an adjustable base to suit the varied roof falls. This acted as a base for the ASHPs and plant screens, utilising the weight of the units as ballast to mitigate wind loading to the Standard screens which were attached to visually conceal the equipment. Our Speedscreen was also used in areas to hide unsightly HVAC/R equipment from a rooftop terrace. The entire screen structure and trims were powder coated, to suit the architectural requirements and match in with the red brick theme of the building.

Key features

  • Series 2 platform for a secure, non-penetrating rooftop solution.
  • Standard screen panels for enclosing and protecting equipment.
  • Ballast weighted Speedscreen system to visually screen off the equipment from a roof terrace with no roof penetrations.
  • Conforms to BS EN 516 2006 and BS EN 1090-3 2008

Installation

Thanks to the modular, prefabricated design and the inclusion of clear, easy to follow instructions, the process was highly efficient from start to finish. The pre-engineered components arrived onsite organized and ready for assembly, significantly reducing installation time and complexity. The modular concept played a key role in the project's success; ensuring there were no missing parts, no product waste, and no delays. This streamlined approach not only minimized onsite disruption but also enabled the team to complete the build smoothly and within the projected timeline.

Design

This design developed by our inhouse design team featured a fully integrated. penetration-less plant deck and screen system. Acoustic panels was strategically installed to two sides to act as a sound barrier, effectively mitigating the operational noise emitted by the VRV units. The choice of a Series 1 Platform provided a robust and stable base, ensuring both safety and functionality, while also facilitating easier access for ongoing maintenance.
