CLIENT: Telstra

BUILDER: Lend Lease

PURPOSE AND SIZE: B Data Centre: 2,000 m²

COMPLETION DATE: December 2010

DURATION: 6 Months

ACCESS FLOOR SYSTEM USED: Steel Cementitious HPL Rigid Grid System with an 11kN loading at 950mm FFH
Product Code: SC-64-11-RG-HPL

PROJECT FEATURES AND HIGHLIGHTS: The specification contained special requirements which saw the need for some of the ASP products to be specially designed to meet project requirements. In the specification, the air grilles required a 100% damper shut-off. Also, the earthing requirements saw the need for a continuous connection from the panel right through to the pedestal base.
The project did however present some installation challenges due to the large quantity of switchboards. The self-supporting switchboards required a multitude of cuts in the access floor and so ASP utilized our 1200mm and perimeter stringers to support these cuts.
