Although this building has been clearly designed with a high regard for aesthetics, functions have not been neglected. Flexible column grids of 11.5 metres x 9.6 metres allow single- and multi-tenants the freedom to tailor office space according to their requirements.
Throughout the office section, fully installed air-conditioning maintains optimum working conditions, while a series of surge arresters protect electrical equipment should lightning strike. Tenants enjoy the convenience of 24-hour usage of their premises through a card access system, and the confidence of manned security with closed circuit TV.
Separate office and cargo entrances ensure a smooth and efficient traffic flow by channelling traffic into two streams. This allows office and warehouse areas to operate side by side, with neither one compromising the other. Each floor is serviced by a comprehensive lift system comprising of two passenger lifts in the office area, and one service lift and four goods lifts in the warehouse area.
The expansive warehouse area maximises useable space with an extra-wide column span and a lofty ceiling height of 6 metres. A fully installed mechanical ventilation system is in place, as well as provision for air-conditioning, if required.
On the ground floor, eight loading/unloading bays with dock levellers are capable of handling even 45 ft. and high cube containers with ease. Under optimal conditions, a standard 40 ft. container can be unloaded, on average, within a mere 45 minutes. Far-sighted provision has also been made for the floor-to-floor conveyance of goods. The first floor has a loading capacity of 20 KN/sq. m., while the second to fourth floors support up to 15 KN/sq. m.
