Radium is a 229-unit residential compound in Riyadh's Al Munsiyah district; AZEIDK supplied, installed, tested and commissioned fire, alarm and security systems.
About the project
Radium is a residential compound in the Al Munsiyah district of Riyadh. It stands on a land area of about 44,869 square metres and contains 229 residential units, so many households live side by side on a single site.
Why fire and life safety matter in a residential compound
People sleep in a residential compound, including children and older residents, and a fire that starts at night in one unit can go unnoticed until it has grown. Automatic detection inside the units, with alarms passed quickly to a central monitoring point such as a security office, is what allows action before the fire reaches neighbouring homes. With units spread over a large site, pinpointing an incident and guiding Civil Defense crews to it is just as important. Security systems complete the picture: they control who enters and leaves and give compound management a view of the site that helps direct responders. These systems are built to the Saudi Building Code (SBC 801) and Civil Defense requirements.
AZEIDK’s role
AZEIDK handled the supply, installation, testing and commissioning of fire protection, alarm and security systems at Radium, according to the project requirements.
