Description
The Haymarket Yards PBSA project in Edinburgh’s West End is a new, purpose-built student accommodation designed to meet rising demand in a prime location near the city center and major universities. Spread across a ground floor and seven upper storeys, the development includes 156 well-equipped studio units and diverse communal amenities, such as a gym, media room, and study spaces. Slated to open in September 2024, the project’s developers focused on delivering both comfort and safety, emphasizing fire safety as a top priority in a high-occupancy, multi-storey residential environment.
To meet these stringent safety needs, Base was contracted to design, supply, and install a Category 4 sprinkler system. This system, tailored to the building’s layout, complies with British Standard BS 9251, offering reliable protection in high-density residential settings. Through strategic zone mapping, custom piping, and pump configurations, the sprinklers cover high-risk areas and ensure operational readiness across all floors, seamlessly integrating into the building’s framework without impacting the aesthetic. This solution not only enhances fire protection but ensures regulatory compliance and peace of mind for both residents and operators, positioning Haymarket Yards as a model in student accommodation safety.
