High-Rise Residential Strata

Reconstructing Hydrant Block Plans for a High-Rise Strata Tower

A 30-storey residential tower with no usable hydrant documentation needed compliant block plans before its annual fire safety statement. We reconstructed the system from scratch.

The Problem

A 30-storey residential strata tower in Sydney had no usable hydrant block plans. The original construction drawings were lost, and the only documentation available was a faded, inaccurate photocopy from the 1990s that did not reflect the installed system.

The Challenge

The building had 30+ levels of hydrant pipework with zone valves, pressure-reducing valves and a complex booster arrangement. Access required coordination with the strata manager across multiple residential floors.

Our Solution

Our engineers conducted a full physical survey of the hydrant system across all levels, tracing pipe runs, identifying valve positions and documenting the booster configuration. We produced new AS 2419 compliant block plans from scratch.

The Outcome

Compliant hydrant block plans delivered within 3 weeks. The Annual Fire Safety Statement was submitted on time with zero auditor comments on the hydrant documentation.
