Technical Deliverables & Scope

Multi-Tier Corridor Containment Racks

Coordinating LV/HV power, data/telecoms, and ELV baskets while enforcing code-mandated electrical segregation distances.

Switchroom & Substation Riser Detailing

High-density cable ladder drops, busbar trunking routes, and distribution board termination layouts.

Penetration & Fire Barrier Transit Frames

Compartment wall and floor transit openings dimensioned with fire-stopping specification tags.

Cantilever & Trapeze Support Layouts

Bracket support spacings, cantilever arms, and seismic brace locations calculated from structural soffits.

Frequently Asked Technical Questions

Do you enforce code segregation between power and data cabling? +

Yes. We model with strict adherence to BS 7671, NEC Article 800, and EN 50174 separation rules to prevent electromagnetic interference (EMI).

What Level of Development (LOD) do you provide for electrical containment? +

We detail at LOD 350 to 400, including accurate manufacturer fittings, bends, risers, reducers, coupler plates, and Unistrut trapeze brackets.

Can you coordinate containment routes around structural downstand beams? +

Yes. Corridor ceiling voids are coordinated to maintain minimum ceiling headroom clearances while cleanly dodging downstand beams and mechanical ducting.
