HSE – Two Storey Modular Chemical Storage Firevault

The clients requirements

Chemstore was contacted by a national construction company that had won a recent HSE tender for a development to a renowned Hospital in Dublin. Part of the project scope was consultation regarding how all flammable materials need to be handled and stored safely. Chemstore worked with the construction company to design, manufacture and install a Bespoke Certified 90 minute Fire Rated Modular Building designated for flammables Storage. The tender required a two-storey store that was fire rated, liftable by crane and equipped with spark proof Atex certified electrical components, such as lights, switches and extractor fans.

Chemstore’s David O’Carroll attended the HSE site for a visit to see where the two-storey modular store was to be installed. As well as review all chemicals to be stored in this Fire Rated unit. David provided offered his expert advice on best storage practices and segregation from the chemical inventory list provided by the client.

Our solution

Chemstore was advised by project architects to build a two-storey modular Firevault.  This included a wide set of stairs to access both levels of the chemical store for maintenance and access. The unique and intricate design required the use of HI-AB cranes to delicately stack the engineered units on top of each other, made possible by the crane lifting lugs. The modular units were manufactured off site including the certified stairwell.   The delivery, installation and commissioning was complete over a number of days on site avoiding long lead times and build works on site.
