Delivering a compliant fire system at Addison Street, Marrickville required precise coordination across multiple building services to ensure all detection, warning and evacuation functions operated as a single, integrated system.
Espritec delivered the design coordination, installation and commissioning of the dry fire system, aligning fire engineering requirements, documentation, and staged testing with mechanical, electrical and wet fire interfaces to achieve full system integration at handover. The system is designed to detect fire or smoke events and trigger a sequence of responses, ensuring safe and efficient evacuation.
Project Manager Vaibhav Vashisth (Manu) led the project’s coordination from design through to delivery, working closely with the builder and consultants to ensure compliance at every stage.
“Our role involved reviewing fire standards in detail and ensuring the design was fully compliant, with no gaps in equipment or documentation,” Vaibhav said. “There’s a significant amount of coordination and technical review required to make sure everything aligns before installation begins.”
On site, Espritec managed the practical delivery, overseeing installation teams and ensuring the system was implemented in accordance with the engineered design.
“We worked closely with other trades to ensure all systems were integrated correctly,” explained Aseem Marwaha, Fire Systems Supervisor. “The dry fire system connects with everything—from mechanical and electrical to wet fire—so coordination across all trades is essential to ensure the sequence of events operates as intended.”
Due to the nature of fire systems, Espritec’s involvement spanned the full project lifecycle, from early-stage coordination through to final testing and commissioning. “We’re involved from the very beginning and are often the last to finish, because we need to test and verify every input across the system,” Aseem said.
The result was a fully compliant system that passed inspection on the first attempt—highlighting Espritec’s commitment to delivering precise, reliable and safety-focused fire solutions in complex construction environments.
