INTRODUCTION NOTES

This document provides information that you need to know in order to use your building safely whilst complying with UCL policy and fire safety legislation. Each UCL building has been given a risk rating, and this dictates how often fire safety reviews take place, as well as how often departmental staff and fire evacuation marshals should receive full fire safety training.

UCL Departments must ensure that:

all new staff are provided with adequate induction training;

this training is refreshed periodically (depending on the fire risk rating below);

fire evacuation marshals (FEM) are appointed for each floor of the building;

fire evacuation marshals are suitably trained, including refresher trained periodically (depending on the fire risk rating);

departmental areas and the risks contained therein are managed safely;

appropriate arrangements are in place to ensure the safe evacuation of disabled people;

Fire Safety Reviews - UCL Fire Safety Team will periodically carry out fire risk assessments and fire safety reviews. The period in which these reviews will take place will be dictated by the determined risk category of the building.

Fire Drill - UCL will deliver drills on a risk-based programme. Fire drills are incorporated into the fire risk assessment programme to create a fire safety package at each building on a risk-based frequency. A full fire evacuation rehearsal will be carried out at a frequency determined by the Building Category

1. Introduction This short guide provides basic fire safety information for occupants and visitors at the 1-19 Torrington Place.

2. General Building Description Completed in 1960 by Mullard Ltd which used 1-19 Torrington as their company headquarters before being bought out by the Dutch Philips Electronics company and becoming Philips UK headquarters. The name was then changed to Philips House; UCL purchased the building in the late 1990s.

The premises comprises of an ‘L’ shaped building with a eleven story tower running west / east along Torrington Place and ground to sixth floor west wing running north / south along Tottenham Court Road. The building is approximately 35m high, has a 2-storey podium to the front with a 10-storey block to the rear. It has a subbasement, basement, ground, levels 1 – 10, 11th floor plant room and roof. New teaching space has been created at the basement and ground levels and associated refurbished reception, entrance and facilities in 2018.

For fire safety purposes 1 - 19 Torrington Place (Bldg: 086) and 188 Tottenham Court Road (Bldg: 363) except for retail shops at ground & lower ground levels are a single building, with interconnecting fire alarm systems. A separate fire premises handbook is provided for 188 TCR. The shops have separate emergency evacuation arrangements to the UCL demise, but have a right of escape from lower ground level through the rear car park of 1-19 TP and out to the street.

1 - 19 Torrington Place (1-19TP) - is formed of the Main Tower (East Wing) comprising of ground & 11 storeys with lower ground floor and sub-basement area. The West Wing is formed over the shops on Tottenham Court Road between first floor & fifth floors attached at upper levels to the main east tower. There is escape to ground level but no separate building access to the west wing except through the main tower (east wing).

188 Tottenham Court Road (TCR) - forms the basement of the west wing with the ground level/lower ground floors occupied by shops & businesses except for the small UCL entrance to sub-basement located at 188 TCR, which has its own separate Fire Strategy (Bldg: 363).

General arrangement plans are attached including the Fire Assembly Point location

3. Means of Escape (MoE) Teaching Space Ground Floor:

o additionally, teaching space users can escape into the west lift lobby merging with occupants escaping from upper floors through Stair A and out through triple escape doors to street level;

o Note - the east stair (Stair B) occupants do not escape through the Reception and main entrance but continue to lower ground level and leave via doors to the rear of the building and travel further up the east vehicle ramp to street level;




Teaching Space Basement / Lower Ground Level: o teaching space users escape through the east stair lift lobby (Stair B)

and leave via doors to the rear of the building and travel further up the east vehicle ramp to street level;

East (Main) Tower - the means of escape from each floor is served by two x stair enclosures at each end of building, with access to either stair. These stairs are not discounted for escape purposes, as they are provide 2 x fire doors forming a fire and smoke lobby of 60 minutes protection;

o Stair A (West Stair) - discharges into west lift lobby and out to street level via;

o Stair B (East Stair) - fire escape exit is at lower ground floor into rear courtyard and travel further out via the east vehicle ramp to street level;

Persons with Disabilities:

Department to provide PEEPs and specific arrangements (see details below)

Other Information: None




5. Emergency Disabled Evacuation Provisions

Relevant

Information

Mobility Impaired Persons (MIP) or Persons with Disabilities:

Department’s local management arrangements and fire evacuation strategy for MIP and disabled persons should not rely solely on the Fire & Rescue Service, rescuing people waiting in refuges, but for the Department to have satisfactory arrangements in place to assist persons from the building to a place of permanent safety.

Personal Emergency Evacuation Plan (PEEP)

Managers should develop Personal Emergency Evacuation Plans (PEEPs) for all MIP or staff and students with disabilities under their responsibility. PEEPs should be conducted for all areas that persons with disabilities are likely to visit and should be completed iaw the instructions provided on RiskNET under the section ‘Risk Assessments’ > Personal Emergency Evacuation Plans. Further information is also available from www.ucl.ac.uk/fire/documents under ‘Disabled Staff and Student Guidance’

Disabled Refuge Facilities: (Generally, only provided on individual Risk Assessment or as part of a PEEP initiated by the Department):

Some UCL buildings have refuge areas, which are surrounded by fire-resisting construction. These are to be considered as temporary waiting areas only. Disabled people should never be left in the building, as departments must always have sufficient procedures in place to evacuate disabled persons. The refuge may be used as a safe place for a less ambulant person to wait for everyone else to leave, before making their way down the stairs (with assistance if necessary) at their own pace.

Disabled Refuge Communications Facilities: (Communication for disabled refuges have BT big button phone or system complying BS5839-9):

(1). Local communications by phone or talk box with specific building instructions and numbers to call; (2). Mobile Users should call the UCL Security Control Room (available 24/7) who can arrange help and assistance on:

020 7679 2222 (Ext: 222) Alternative Number (24/7) - 020 7387 5256; UCL Security Ops (24/7) - 020 7679 2108 (Ext: 32108);

Disabled Evacuation Lift: None – progressive horizontal evacuation available

Deaf Persons Fire Alarm Alerting Facilities (Change to alerting facilities for hearing impaired people):

Deaf Messaging System (DMS) (see UCL Fire Safety Tech Note TN 007) - a DMS is provided and connected to the fire alarm system to send out a text message upon fire alarm activation to those who have opted into the service. Blue information stickers at the entrance to the building provide the text information and instructions;

DMS Ref text 1-19TPDMS30

General Emergency Evacuation Plan (GEEP):

The building is provided with fire safe lobbies to each stair - which will provide time for arrangements to be made for others to assist. The person you are visiting will take you to the refuge, which is within the evacuation stairway at each level of the building and ensure that FEM s or others are informed that a refuges is being used. If you are able, make you own way down the stairs in your own time, once all other occupants have passed you.
