FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEM IN HIGH RISE BUILDINGCase Study: Burj Khalifa

The main re safety systems installed within the Burj Khalifa are the sprinkler systems,

stn!pipe system, "re lrm n! sm#ke lrm n! e$%&ti#n systems .

'&t#mti% Sprinkler System

•

The Burj Khalifa in Dubai is outtted with an&t#mti% sprinkler system

; its main taskis to control the sread of the re. !ssistin" in re safety is the re resistant construction. The skyscraer#s comosition rotects surroundin" $oors% rest &ones% mechanical areas%

and ha&ardous areas from the other areas around it.

• Srinkler system is ro'ided for the entire Tower% (odium% D) * +) areas.

• E(press risers are in ,echanical * (lumbin" closets of Center core of the buildin" which

feeds water to Srinkler * Standie risers.

• Is#lti#n $l$es are located at Di-erent le'els to isolate the system * +S are located at

di-erent le'els to indicate the $ow of the system.

Stn!pipe System

• Standie systems are a series of ie which connect a water suly to hose connections.

They are desi"ned to ro'ide a pre+pipe! ter system for buildin" occuants.

M&lti+lrm sens#rs that include smoke% heat and

otical sensors are located in all rooms throu"houtthe buildin". The system will immediately notify

occuants in the area throu"h an emer"ency

'oice2alarm communication.• 2#i%e lrm spekers are also bein" ro'ided to

all areas within the Burj Dubai% includin" the

residential and hotel units. These will ro'ide test%alert and e'acuation messa"es in both !rabic and

n"lish.

MO2EMENT SYSTEM IN HIGH RISE BUILDINGCase Study: (etronas Tower

Ele$t#r System


3/10

• Since the towers are each 33 stories hi"h% it is ine4cient in terms of money% sace% and

time to ha'e sin"le ele'ators tra'elin" directly from the bottom to the to of the buildin".

This romted the builders to desi"n -i)-+spee! !#&.le+!e%k ele$t#rs.• ! !#&.le+!e%k, m%-ine r##m+less ele$t#r system has two ele'ator cabs attached%

with one on to of the other. This desi"n allows assen"ers on consecuti'e $oors to use theele'ators at the same time% which increases caacity and reduces wait times

• The min .nk of ele'ators is located in the center of each tower. !ll main ele'ators

are double5decker with the lower deck of the ele'ator takin" assen"ers to #!!

n&m.ere! 6##rs and uer deck to e$en n&m.ere! 6##rs.

• The system is comrised of a %entrl e(%-n)e n! rem#te stti#ns% and ermits calls

to master stations located in the central control room or in facility "uard rooms from

substations installed in such 'aried locations as entrance "ates% arkin" lots or buildin"

are essential for the oeration of the tower and the comfort of its occuants.

'ir C#n!iti#nin) System

• The comle9 air5conditionin" system in Burj Khalifa

uses >) miles 7?@ km8 of ies. These transortwater throu"h the basement where it is chilled. The tower#s air conditionin"

relies on an i%e+pr#!&%ti#n system.

• This air conditionin" system was desi"ned to take ad'anta"e of

%#l!er ir t -i)-er ltit&!es. This system catures cool

air near the to of the buildin" and in turn ums this coolercleaner air to warmer $oors below.

;ter C##lin) System

• Coolin" water for the comle9 is ro'ided by %entrl plnts l#%te! #< site. Two

incomin" lines from di-erent central lants are ro'ided.• Due to the e9treme temerature% the central lants ha'e i%e st#r)e to allow

emer"ency coolin" for selected e/uiment. The district chilled water is routed to

heat e(%-n)er stti#ns located on the Concourse 0e'el. ach heat e9chan"er
