Fire Protection Enhancement to First Floor and Infill of Existing Ceremonial Stair Area at Civic Centre Carlisle

Descriptions

It has been identified following a recent Fire Risk Assessment that there is a requirement for suitable fire compartmentation to the lift and stairwell access points to be created at first floor level within the Civic Centre, Rickergate, Carlisle, CA3 8QG. Carlisle City Council are seeking quotations to form a lobby access to enable 30-minute fire separation to both tower block stairwells and the lift shafts (Lot 1). In addition to this, it is also proposed to infill the floor area over the existing Ceremonial Staircase and partition off to create a storeroom beneath (Lot 2). The existing staircase will remain in situ with partitions built to enclose. The above works will be split in to two separate lots and tenders are invited for either Lot 1 only, or both Lots 1 and 2 (but not for Lot 2 only).
