THE CHALLENGE
deeside college
The client requested a water tank to work in conjunction with a fire sprinkler system. A Sprinkler system is a water supply projection system, providing a constant flow of water at an adequate pressure which is distributed through a piping system for sprinklers. The water source tank required LPCB certification to ensure adequate testing has been undertaken to ensure constant water supply at pressure will be available for fire protection regulations.
TRICEL SOLUTION
A 6.00m x 3.00m x 2.50m High LPCB approved sectional water tank was manufactured, delivered offloaded and installed by our crews on the grounds of Deeside College. also known as Coleg Cambria in North East Wales. This is one of the largest colleges with over 7,000 full-time students and 20,000-part-time pupils. The fire protection water tank holds a total capacity of 45,000 litres nominal.
THE FINAL RESULT
The result was the successful installation of an LPCB-approved sectional water tank with a capacity of 45,000 litres on the grounds of Deeside College (also known as Coleg Cambria) in North East Wales. The tank was designed to ensure a continuous and adequate water supply for the fire sprinkler system.
The project was undertaken over the holiday period and required completion before the holiday term ended to reduce any disruption to the college and ensure they were approved for fire protection before students returned in 2016.
The sectional water tank was delivered on the 6th of January and the tank was fully installed on the 11th of January.
