Fire-safe Roof Gardens in the South Bank Development
Mustard Wharf
Early 2021
Featured Products
Mustard Wharf, located in the South Bank neighbourhood , offers one-, two- and three-bedroom boutique apartments with roof gardens, a clubhouse, gym and private dining rooms for residents.
Roof spaces at Levels 3 and 4 of the development’s Building A required terrace systems that are attractive, durable, functional and fire-safe.
The client’s original preference for the decking surface was powder-coated aluminium, but as this product only has a Class A2 fire rating they opted for the striking dark-wood effect of Raaft’s Class A1-rated Farrino 'Cocoa' porcelain decking. Other considerations that influenced this decision were Farrino’s resistance to wind uplift and scratch-resistant, slip-resistant surface.
The architects also specified Raaft’s fire-rated support structure, using Raaft aluminium joists and fire-rated metal pedestals to create a fully compliant terrace.
