Al Andalus Business Center
Al Andalus Business Center is a commercial building in Jeddah where AZEIDK delivered fire alarm and firefighting systems to approved drawings, through to handover.
About the project
Al Andalus Business Center is a commercial building in Jeddah. Business centres of this kind usually house offices and commercial units for different tenants, who share entrances, corridors and stairs.
Why fire and life safety matter in a business centre
Conditions in a business centre change between day and night. During working hours, staff and visitors are spread across many units, and visitors often do not know the escape routes; after hours the building is almost empty, and a fire can start unseen in an electrical room, server room or paper archive. Safety depends on early automatic detection, a firefighting network that limits spread before Civil Defense crews arrive, and usable stairs, the main escape route. Because tenants refit units over time, systems must be installed to approved drawings and tested before handover, so the building meets Civil Defense requirements and the Saudi Building Code (SBC 801).
