Monument protection
The installation of emergency lighting for an exhibition room was planned in this listed building. In order to preserve the listed building and avoid structural changes to the brickwork without compromising the historical ambience, a standard-compliant escape route was to be realised.
As an additional safety measure, it was decided to install a guidance system with emergency signs in the floor.
In close cooperation with our local electrical partner, we developed a unique solution for integrating the emergency sign with power supply in the floor channel. A carpenter created a special recess in the floor channel in which the emergency sign could be optimally integrated.
A highly adhesive tape was applied around the emergency sign to ensure that the emergency sign was held securely in place. This resulted in a safe and standard-compliant solution that fulfils the client’s requirements.
Technology
The fermentation gas can attack and corrode metals such as copper, resulting in damage to the metal components. For this reason, it was necessary to protect the emergency light, in particular the light source and the associated electronics, and to develop an appropriate solution.
Not emergency light
For event venues, anti-panic lighting with an illumination of at least 0.5 lux is required by law. This ensures that it never gets darker than the limit value in this area. This is not normally a problem. Unless there is no roof or ceiling and the anti-panic lighting is exposed to the weather - as is the case with the Seebühne in Bregenz.
