1. Introduction

In a high-rise building, the stairs typically represent the sole means of egress during a fire. It is imperative for
the exit stairs to be free of smoke and to incorporate design features that improve the speed of occupant
egress. Most building codes require the fire stairwells in a high-rise building to be pressurized to keep smoke
out.
This method statement is intended to lay down the testing & balancing requirements, standards and procedures
used by the NEBB certified Company TAB Egypt to carry out the testing of stairwell pressurisation system in
Abu Dhabi Plaza – Astana, Kazakhstan.
2. Scope of Wok
A critical component of any facility’s fire control and life safety system, stairwell pressurisation keeps exit
routes smoke-free in the event of a fire. Trouble arises when a stairwell loses pressure as its doors open and
close. Stairwell pressurisation testing ensures that a building’s occupants can exit safely during a fire
emergency. Correct pressures, air change rates, and door air flow velocity are key ingredients in a safe
structure.
Testing & balancing of the Stairwell pressurisation system can best be accomplished by the following
systematic procedures. The TAB procedures presented in this section are recommended current best practices
for balancing this system.
The list shown below includes the equipment that will be tested and balanced by Commissioning Services
International.

8. Stairwell Pressurisation Fan

8.1 Introduction
Stairwell pressurisation system is an important component of the Essential Services in many buildings and
the effective operation of this system for fire isolated exits could mean the difference between life and death in
a fire evacuation. Whilst there is increasing emphasis on the correct commissioning and regular testing of this
system they remain one of the more problematic aspects of smoke control systems in buildings.
The stairwell pressurisation serves several purposes:
 Inhibit migration of smoke to stairwells, areas of refuge or similar areas.
 Maintain a tenable environment in areas of refuge and means of egress during the time required for
evacuation.
 Facilitate the fire and rescue operation by improving visibility in the building for the firefighting crew.
 Protect life and reduce damage to property.
8.2 Construction Readiness
Most construction activities should be completed prior to Pressurization Fan testing. The building should be
in a state of near occupancy conditions. Any item that will affect the stairwell pressurization testing should be
completed.

From a general construction standpoint, this means that the building exterior is complete, interior partitions
complete, ceiling installed, carpeting installed, etc. Items such as painting, hard surfaces flooring, etc. is not
required.

Pre-commissioning of ventilation system will be carried out upon satisfactory completion of installation, and
once ductworks leakage testing has been completed by project. The initial pre-commissioning, drive alignment
and setting to work is to be carried out by the unit manufacturer/supplier as stated in 23 34 00 (HVAC Fans).

The fan commissioning will not commence until the installation mechanical and electrical checklists are signed
off.

Application Guide -3189 Part C, C.I.B.S.E. Commissioning code A: 1996-Air Distribution system & NFPA 92
Standard for Smoke Control System.

Initial volumes of ventilation system will be carried out. The initial volume will be set to approximately 11O% of
the design using inverters.

Page 11 of 38
 Abu Dhabi Plaza – Astana, Kazakhstan Document No.
Work Package 4 – Main Works ADP-233400-014

Method Statement for Testing & Commissioning of Stairwell Pressurization System Page 12 of 38 Rev. 003

If the design volume is not achieved further checks will be carried out on the system, including visual
checks for air tightness, system cleanliness, a i r regulating devices, fan and Electrical checks to establish
problem so it is addressed prior to balancing proceeding. Any plant found to be performing u n d e r
design will be brought to the attention of consultant designer/MEP for advice.

The total volume of the system in the main ductworks from FAN's, shall be measured utilising multi-point
static tube traverse in combination with an Inclined Manometer or Micro-Manometer. If t h e ductwork
c onf iguration is not suitable for multi-point static tube traverse then fan external I total pressure will
recorded, and assessed against the relevant manufacture fan curves.

The air terminals w i ll be measured b y an Anemometer, w i t h a suitable c ollection hood (duly calibrated),
or by a direct reading Balometer. A hood correction factor is obtained by measuring a single branch
serving one or two grilles by pilot traverse and by hood reading and then working out a correction factor.

The resultant flow rates will be recorded and completed directly to the design values to ascertain: -

1. The System Index (Staircase lowest air flow on the terminal)

2. The unbalanced state of the system (i.e. initial readings)

The balance of the system shall be carried out using the proportional balancing method resulting in a scan of
all terminals throughout the system. To balance one terminal against another it is necessary to adjust the
regulating dampers so that the terminals share the flow in the correct proportions. Each terminal should then
pass its design flow, since each has been set to take its correct share.

The total flow of the system shall be measured in its proportionally balanced state along with motor
running currents be recorded on Commissioning Services International (CSI) test sheet.

The basic TAB stair pressurisation test measure the fan's air flow and pressures in the stairwell. With the
stairwell pressurisation system activated, measure and record the pressure difference across each stairwell
door with all door closed. The stairwell must always be used as the reference with the floor -side of the door
having the pressure difference indication by design {i.e. positive if higher than the stairwell and negative if less
than the stairwell).
As per project requirements, the following procedures are required:
 Measure the pressure difference across all other doors.
 Measure and record the force required to open each stairwell door with a spring type scale, with all
stairwell doors closed.
 Measure the pressure difference across (1 Main exit & other 1 Consecutive Floors)
 Air Velocity of not Less than 1 m/s through door when all 2 doors are open (1 Main exit & other 1
Consecutive Floors)
 Pressure Inside the Stairwells/shaft shall be a minimum of 13 Pa at two doors open
 Pressure inside the Stairwells/ shaft shall be 50Pa at all Door Closed.
 Maximum force requires opening any door handle shall not exceed 100 N
 Signal shall send to all the lift to recall at Primary landing if the Fire in other levels or to the Secondary
Landing if the fire in primary landing floor. All the time delay will be as per the Approved Cause & Effect

Testing of stairwell pressurisation systems should be conducted with established conditions including:

 Number and location of doors held open

 Outside pressure conditions known
 Inside stairwell pressure
 Velocity through the doors held open

8.3.1 General conditions of testing

Tests should be carried out to check the performance of pressurisation systems after completion and
before occupation of the building. It is particularly important that the proper doors and windows are fitted and
are in the closed position before air flow and pressure difference measurements are made. Vents to vertical
shafts and on the leeward sides of the building that are required for pressurisation relief should be open. Tests
should not be carried out in winds stronger than 11 mph (5 m/s), since it would be difficult to allow far the
adverse effects of wind on pressurisation. An allowance may be made for stack effect per specific codes.

8.3.2 Sequence of operation (applicable to all pressurized stairwells in all blocks)

 Ensure all isolation dampers are open and supply fans turn ON.
 Measure and record the pressure differential across each stairwell door with all doors closed. Measured
pressure differential should matched the value required by specifications. Note that the stack effect; wind
speed and direction; and outdoor temperature may all influence measured pressures and system
balance.
 With all required doors open, determine the direction and velocity of air flow across each door opening.

8.3.3 Stair and Vestibule Pressurisation:

1. System consists of:
 Stair pressurisation and Fire Fighters Lift Pressurisation Fans.
 Stair shaft counter-balanced back draft dampers.
 HOA override switches in the FSCS panel
2. The Stair pressurisation fans are controlled by the BMS system.
 Upon receipt of a signal from the FLS system, Stair pressurisation fans shall start.
 Pre-adjusting the counter-balanced dampers at stair relief and adjusting exhaust fan air
volume at alarm floor shall control the differential pressure between the stairwell and
alarm floor.
 Maintain 0.05” (minimum) positive pressure between stair and the alarm floor.
 Maximum pressure in stairwell with respect to adjacent spaces shall not exceed those
required to ensure door-opening forces below the values permitted by code.
3. The Stair pressurisation fans are also controlled via ON/OFF/Auto switches at the Smoke Control
panel.
4. Final adjustment of air quantities at discharge registers and final adjustment of fan speed to
achieve desired pressures shall be performed by the air balance contractor with the cooperation
and assistance of the BAS contractor
