BIG FOOT PROVIDES NON-PENETRATIVE SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR HAMPTON BY HILTON
Big Foot Systems has provided a complete non-penetrative support system for Hampton by Hilton in Ealing . The task was to provide support for a louvre screen , 2 AHUs , several VRV units , ductwork , cabling and pipework . The 87 linear metres of all-weather louvre screen provides a protected environment against wind loading alongside visual improvement to neighbouring buildings .
The design was carefully thought out by in house Engineers , coordinating the 12-sided layout with 3 entry points around ; the building structure , a large lift overrun , falls & drainage and several rooftop vents . Detailed design analysis was carried out to ensure the project ’ s specific technical considerations were met .
The team were able not only to maximise the allowable space on the inside for the plant support but also for services and access routes . The various banks of Daikin VRV units situated on the perimeter framework go together to provide unit support whilst acting as ballast to counterweight the louvre .
After attending site to review the requirements in more detail it was clear that Big Foot could offer a suitable alternative proposal to be installed directly onto the recently laid green / sedum roof . The contracting team on site found the benefit of using a Big Foot non-penetrative system was not only a saving in time and cost but also limited future risk to the roof surface for their client .
The original plans for this project were to penetrate the roof with H steels and add a secondary steel beam structure to support the plant and potentially the screen .
