Case Study - Paradise Street

SE Controls News and PR from SE Controls - Published 27 February 2020 Smoke and heat exhaust ventilation systems from SE Controls at student accommodation on Paradise Street, Coventry.
A £52 million student accommodation development in Coventry is using smoke and heat exhaust ventilation (SHEV) systems from SE Controls to enhance fire safety by providing smoke free escape routes for almost 1000 students living at Paradise Student Village.

Located on Paradise Street and managed by student accommodation provider, AXO Student Living, the development includes studio rooms and study bedrooms, arranged in clusters, as well as a café bar, cinema and gym.

Designed by Fraser Brown Mackenna Architects and constructed by Galliford Try, the new building incorporates three towers with 10, 12 and 14 storeys respectively, together with an extensive 3 storey town house structure that is arranged in a ‘wall’ below the towers and adjacent to the city’s ring road.

To meet fire safety and smoke ventilation requirements, the buildings are separated into six individual fire zones with dedicated smoke control solutions from SE Controls serving each zone, which protects stairwells and corridors by keeping escape routes clear of smoke if a fire should occur.
