FOUR SEASONS PLACE
A very impression five star hotel with a large arch-like atrium of 3 connected blocks of hotel rooms. Due to the unique arched atrium design, smoke control proved an extremely challenging issue which SGA solved by innovated solutions.
TABUNG HAJI HOTEL, KLIA
This project took an existing shopping centre, hotel and office tower and regenerated it into an upmarket international mixed development complex. The Double Tree Hotel is now part of the development which has two high-rise office towers all connected by a shopping mall and carpark podium.
THE INTERMARK
Four major buildings were designed to accommodate the main production line processes to build Malaysia’s National car. Fire Engineering was used in dealing with fire compartmentation, smoke control and egress from the industrial buildings and deliver an efficient open-spaced design for motor vehicle manufacture.
PROTON CITY
A mixed development having a shopping mall podium with SOHO units sole occupancy office and residential apartments in one complex. Fire safety engineering was used for solving compartmentation and egress issues.
EMPIRE SUBANG
From an abandoned Mall development, this shopping mall was designed to represent a current retail experience. Numerous challenges were faced and solutions found for fire safety engineering matters.
QUEENSBAY MALL, PENANG
Major upgrading of the Terminal building presented smoke control and compartmentation problems for the design team. SGA was able to find viable solutions to achieve the desired fire safety objectives.
TERRENGGANU AIRPORT TERMINAL
This project required the interconnection of lower ground floor lobbies to the main hotel lobby and a main atrium connecting tothe ballroom and other function rooms.
EQUATORIAL PLAZA
Comprising both a Transportation Hub linked to a Retail Mall, SGA was involved in the fire compartmentation and egress issues.
PENANG SENTRAL (HUB AND SHOPPING MALL)
SGA was able to provide alternative fire compartmentation and egress solutions for Axiata Arena. Fire safety issues such as stadium seating flammability were researched and fire testing undertaken. Other stadiums studied included National, Aquatic and Hockey Stadiums.
KL SPORTS CITY – NATIONAL AXIATA SWIMMING AND HOCKEY STADIUMS
This project was solved for fire compartmentation and egress issues identified in the retail mall.
FOREST CITY SHOPPING MALL – PHASE 1
The BBCC shopping Mall had many challenging problems relating to fire compartmentation and smoke management. SGA continued working with the shopping mall fit-out team providing essential ongoing advice and technical fire safety input.
BBCC SHOPPING MALL (LALAPORT)
SGA were involved in a number of renovation and upgrading projects to the existing Suria KLCC Shopping Mall. Various phased renovation projects required Fire Safety Engineering assessment. Isetan alterations and the redevelopment of the original Parkson floor space were some of the changes.
SURIA KLCC (PHASED UPGRADING OF EXISTING MALL)
Due to certain renovations proposed at the new Wing, SGA has modelled new design fires and assessed hazards to existing tenancies.
1 UTAMA NEW WING
This high profile mixed development is located in a busy area close to Bangsar. The shopping and entertainment area incorporates challenges for smoke control due to natural venting from a large open-sided atrium roof. The large basement carpark floors have uncompartmented floor areas which required close interaction with the Mechanical Engineer in the design of the smoke exhaust system. The renovation of the existing Mall occurred in 2020 and proposed air-conditioning the upper floors which originally were naturally smoke vented. A complete CFD and egress engineering design was required.
DAMANSARA CITY
This new project by TA Group is a large multi-occupancy development. SGA’s role was to provide a Fire Engineering solution for the increase fire compartmentation areas in the retail mall.
ATIVO AVENUE
Another retail mall project that requires assessment on the smoke control, egress and other fire safety measures to achieve the required fire safety objectives.
TTDI SENTRALIS MALL
This project proposed an effective fire engineering solution to address common compliance issues such as fire compartmentation, smoke control and egress in a retail mall.
SOLARIS PARQ
A Fire Safety Design Philosophy (FSDP) was done to assess the relevant risks of the chemical plant. SGA applied Fire Safety Engineering principles to recommend fire prevention measures and fire-fighting systems appropriate for the risk present on site.
LSCHEM (CHEMICAL PLANT AND STORAGE FACILITY)
The development of phases 3 and 4 for the car park needed an assessment on its mechanical ventilation system. Thus, SGA used Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software to determine the necessary additions to exhaust smoke from vehicular fires.
