A comprehensive life safety strategy was developed for the building, considering egress, firefighting access, control of fire spread internally and externally, as well as fire performance in the materials and structure. Utilizing the Neuron digital building management platform to enhance protection, it collects and stores data in a digital twin for real-time management and monitoring of key fire protection systems. The building design also includes long-throw sprinklers, flame detectors to minimize false activations, and a strategic smoke extraction system, ensuring a robust and efficient response.
