EC.RBKC.02-A July 2025

1A.1 Executive Summary

This Design and Access Statement Addendum has been prepared by Maccreanor Lavington and Gillespies to form part of the previously submitted Design & Access Statement Volume 2: RBKC Detailed Component, dated July 2024 to take account of amendments to the Proposed Development and respond to feedback in relation to minor comments received from the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (“RBKC”) and other external stakeholders, and to update the design to meet the requirements of the new fire safety regulation (BS9991:2024).

Since the submission of the Hybrid Planning Applications, consultation has been undertaken with LBHF, RBKC and relevant statutory and non-statutory consultees. As a result of the consultation feedback, amendments have been made to the Proposed Development.

These amendments can be summarised as follows:

• Amendments to Parameter Plans to reduce height of EC03 by one storey, refine massing of WK02 and other incidental modifications.

• Minor design updates to Development Plots within the RBKC Detailed Component (Plots EC05 and EC06) and LBHF Detailed Component (Plots WB03, WB04 and WB05).

• Inclusion of additional and updated codes within the Design Code.

• Development Specification updates to reflect the above amendments.

• LBHF minimum residential unit number increased from 1,600 to 2,000 (proposed to be secured by an appropriately worded planning condition).

This Addendum is structured to follow the chapter titles and numbering within Design & Access Statement Volume 2: RBKC Detailed Component, dated July 2024 to enable cross referencing with the content of the previously submitted version. The design updates generally respond to the requirements of the new BS9991:2024, as well minor updates addressing RBKC feedback on the detailed Plots EC05 and EC06 and associated landscape.

4A. Design Evolution and Engagement Update

4A.1 Design Evolution & Engagement Update

Introduction

This chapter outlines the design review and evolution process in response to feedback from the Local Authorities including public and stakeholder consultation following the submission of the Hybrid Planning Applications. The process can be summarised in three parts, which are captured in the timeline outlined below.

Feedback review and response

The design evolution and engagement process was shaped by written feedback received from the Local Authorities in February 2025.

Feedback was carefully reviewed by ECDC and relevant members of the design team. Responses were comprehensively considered within the context of the overarching submission and additional content was prepared for continued engagement.

Design response workshops

Between March and May 2025, a series of design review and response workshops were held with the Local Authorities.

Structured around key feedback topics, these workshops built upon the previous iterative engagement process. They provided an opportunity to clarify feedback and present proposed responses, which included supplying additional information, offering clarifications, and exploring amendments to the Illustrative Masterplan and Control Documents.

Finalising updates

Feedback received during the design workshop period was carefully considered and shaped the ongoing design evolution of the proposals.

This process informed the development of additional Illustrative Masterplan material and enhancements to the Control Documents that further reinforce the quality of the Strategic Framework.

4A.1 Design Evolution & Engagement Update

RBKC feedback and engagement

Detailed feedback was received from RBKC planning officers on the RBKC Detailed Component. Planning workshops/meetings and a meeting with RBKC Building Control took place for both EC05 and EC06 to discuss planning feedback and the impacts of regulatory change.

RBKC building control review (EC05 and EC06)

8th January 2025

A meeting was held with RBKC Planning Officers with RBKC Building Control to review the feedback reviewed to date and to make best use of the QDR process. Key topics discussed:

• Presentation of the key developments since submission of the original design including design updates to cores, evacuation lift provision and smoke ventilation strategies.

• RBKC Building Control comments and consolidating information onto fire strategy plans.

• Requirements for the QDR process summarising the design, the discussions held and any amendments to the design as the process is undertaken.

• HSE comments on roof terrace travel distances.

RBKC detailed planning meeting (EC06)

10th April 2025

A meeting was held with RBKC’s planning team to discuss the RBKC Detailed Component, with presentations of changes as a result of BS9991:2024, wheelchair homes, waste and cycle storage, footprint and appearance, landscape and playspace. Key topics discussed:

• Clarification that wheelchair units were located on levels 02-06 (level 5 considering access from park level).

• Proposed changes to the building core as a result of new fire safety regulations and the minor changes to general arrangement, footprint and appearance of the building which have no impact on the prow views and key elevations.

• Updates to the cycle storage layouts which are more convenient for cyclists.

• Further discussions which have taken place with RBKC Waste Services and the changes to layouts required by these discussions.

RBKC detailed planning meeting (EC05)

22nd April 2025

A meeting was held with RBKC’s planning team to discuss the RBKC Detailed Component, with presentations of changes as a result of BS9991:2024, waste storage, housing mix, outlook and private amenity and landscaping. Key topics discussed:

• Discussed the impact of BS9991:2024 and the changes to building core and final exit strategy noting the increased area has been absorbed internally. Noted this has also impacted usable space on roof terraces for residents.

• Noted further discussions have taken place with RBKC Waste Services and the layouts reflect the discussions.

• Noted changes to the mix and housing types with no loss of units.

• Discussed outlook and private amenity space and alternative options for internalised amenity space to some homes.

Design team response:

• Design team to produce QDR report to be submitted to RBKC QDR Panel.

• Design team to update the proposals to incorporate BS9991:2024 updates.

Design team response:

• Design team rearranged floor plates to provide all the wheelchair accommodation on levels 02-05.

• Wheelchair housing mix was amended to be more diverse reflecting RBKC housing feedback.

Design team response:

• External private amenity added to units on L01 and L02 where it was previously internalised.

• Further developed the Table Park side entrance design.

4A.1 Design Evolution & Engagement Update

Qualitative Design Review (QDR)

RBKC Planning Policy CD15 (Fire Safety) requires that applications involving tall buildings (over 50 metres in height) include a QDR Panel Report. In response, the Design Team conducted a QDR review of the project through a series of workshops and design reviews.

The findings from this process were compiled into a report submitted to RBKC and subsequently presented to the RBKC QDR Panel in June 2025.

Our ambition is to ensure the buildings achieve the highest standards in Fire Safety and after a fundamental review of the scheme, we have revised EC05 and EC06 to ensure they meet the requirements of the updated Fire Safety regulations (BS9991:24) and we have incorporated additional enhanced measures above and beyond the requirements of the Regulations.

To support this process, ECDC have:

• Undertaken a third party peer review of the Fire Strategy by an appropriately qualified Fire Engineer.

• Appointed a dedicated Building Safety Act advisor to ensure the project has a robust and relevant strategy to follow the requirements of the BSA.

RBKC Qualitative Design Review Panel (EC05 and EC06)

18th June 2025

A meeting was held with RBKC QDR Panel to review the report submitted by the Design Team.

The scope of the QDR was to:

• Assess the design against requirements of the fire safety guidance.

• Quantify any enhancements that are being provided beyond those required by regulation.

• Undertake fire hazard analysis, for example the team undertaking simulated fire scenarios to determine whether the functional requirements of the building regulations are achieved.

• Undertake “what-if” analysis, considering e.g. failure of any safety systems, or unexpected behaviour of occupants.

Through the QDR process, the Design Team have incorporated the following enhanced measures to the building design:

• Amended roof build up to be made of noncombustible material.

• Provided dedicated battery charging lockers for e-bikes in fire protected areas.

• Uplifted ventilation rates to cycle storage.

• Added a third lift to EC06 for resilience.

• Incorporated dedicated life safety systems to each building to ensure they can operate safely and independently in the event of fire.

6A. Plot Proposal Update

6A.1 RBKC Detailed Component

The following chapter provides amended design information in response to feedback received from RBKC, and other external stakeholders and incorporates design updates as a result of the update to fire safety regulations arising from BS9991:24 being published in November 2024.

The chapter is divided into the following sections:

• Plot wide use and amount updates

• Plot wide ground floor experience updates

• EC05 updates

• EC06 updates

• Landscape updates

6A.1 RBKC Detailed Component

Amended Use and amount

The proposed scheme does not change the total number of homes across the two plots, EC05 and EC06. The building heights and forms remain consistent.

The principles remain consistent with the July 2024 submission. Updates to life safety plant have resulted in the loss of the workspace units from EC06 at Warwick Crescent level.

The changes to building cores have resulted in minor adjustments in unit mix and areas to EC05 and EC06 and a minor adjustment to the footprint of EC06.

The wheelchair housing mix was amended to increase the diversity of home sizes in EC06 reflecting RBKC housing feedback.

Table

6A.1 RBKC Detailed Component

Amended Ground floor uses

Warwick

Crescent level

(+9.0m AOD)

Ground floor uses remain as the July 2024 submission in EC05, with minor adjustments to the layouts.

In line with the recommendations of the Building Safety Act, each building is now required to have its own dedicated life safety plant. As a result, the ground floor use in EC06 has been revised, replacing the workspace with a generator providing back up power to life safety systems.

A cycle store has been added to the Ground Floor of EC06 following RBKC comments on direct cycle store access provision from Warwick Crescent.

The EC05 cycle store has been reduced in size to provide a fire escape route for EC07, also forming an additional BoH space for the F&B unit.

6A.1 RBKC Detailed Component

Amended First floor uses

The Table level (+12.5m AOD)

The design approach remains consistent for first floor uses at Table level with only minor adjustments to the building layout.

Cycle store footprint has increased, with nursery access core removed.

Additional core and escape route added to the mansion block of EC05 to reduce travel distances as per BS9991:2024 guidance.

Nursery waste store now included at Table level.

Key: Residential Food and beverages

Amended Use and amount

The number of homes in the proposed scheme remains consistent with the July 2024 submission, providing 202 new 1, 2 and 3 bedroom homes.

While the number of homes has not changed, the core redesign has resulted in minor changes to unit mix, number of habitable rooms and GIA areas.

The provision of wheelchair accessible homes across both buildings remains at 10%, unchanged since July 2024. In response to feedback from RBKC Housing, the number of accessible homes within EC05 has been reduced by one in favour of EC06.

The Table

Amended Layout summary

Adjustments have been made to Level B1 to incorporate additional refuse capacities and additional cycle store provision following the inclusion of an EC07 escape route through the GF cycle store.

Adjustments have been made to the residential units at shoulder level to incorporate the additional stair core, with general unit updates required following the updated core design.

Updates to the core footprint and residential units have been made to all levels following core adjustments in line with BS9991:2024.

6A.1 EC05

Amended Basement level (+4.8m AOD) general arrangement

Ancillary uses remain concentrated at basement level, which allows the buildings to maximise active frontages at Ground Floor levels.

Adjustments have been made to the refuse store to incorporate additional refuse capacities, which take up some of the residential amenity area.

Adjustments have been made to the cycle store setting out to meet the requirements of BS:9991 2024. 1 2 3 1 2

Additional cycle stores have been provided at B1 due to the inclusion of an EC07 escape route through the GF cycle store. This has led to a reduction in the residential ancillary area.

EC05 is serviced underground via St Cuthbert’s Lane

Amended Warwick Crescent level

(+9.0m AOD) general arrangement

The residential character of Warwick Crescent is not impacted by the design updates to the building core.

The inclusion of an EC07 escape route has led to a reduction in the size of the cycle store, with cycles relocated to B1. At this level the cycle store remains primarily for bicycles for those with accessibility needs.

A zone previously used for structural transfer zone is now a back of house area for the F&B provision.

A waste chute is provided at ground floor only for residents to dispose of waste which is then stored at B1.

Amended Warwick Walk residential entrance (+12.5m AOD)

The design of the entrance at The Table Park level has been updated to accommodate an additional exit route from the staircase whilst maintaining the high quality residents entrance.

Glazing replaced with the green curved glazed ceramic used elsewhere on the facade, following changes internally.

Entrance now recessed with additional exit door to accommodate new fire escape from proposed mansion block core.

6A.1 EC05

Amended Outlook and privacy

The principles to enhance the outlook and maximise views out of each home have been maintained.

The distance between EC05 and EC06 has been reduced slightly following adjustments to the footprint of EC06.

6A.1 EC05

Amended Typical Building Core

(levels 08 - 22)

The building core design has been updated to meet the latest fire guidance set out in BS9991:2024.

Two evacuation lobbies provided with access to one stair and one evacuation lift each plus an additional lift to the fire fighting core. All lifts to function both as firefighting and evacuation lift.

Stair goings have increased to 300mm.

One passive ventilation shaft added to each evacuation lobby.

Mechanical extract and passive ventilation shafts added to each evacuation lobby.

The core has increased in size to accommodate the above, with red dashed outline showing the July 2024 submission core footprint.

6A.1 EC05

Amended Typical upper level general arrangement (levels 09 - 22)

The quality of the homes has been maintained throughout the design update.

The core has been revised to reflect guidance from BS 9991:2024, resulting in an increased core footprint. However, the overall EC05 footprint remains unchanged, as the additional area has been absorbed by a reduction in apartment sizes.

Unit types have been updated to suit the core adjustments, with changes generally minor with the intention to retain the design quality of the July 2024 submission layouts.

Amended Amenity strategy

The strategy of generous curved balconies contributing to the building’s distinctive form providing private outdoor space is maintained, with improvements to the amenity strategy at lower levels.

An additional balcony is provided to Level 01 and Level 02 following unit updates.

There is an overall reduction in the number of internal amenity units.

A terrace has been added to Level 07 facing the amenity space.

(+9.0m AOD) general arrangement plan

The residential character of Warwick Crescent is maintained with the residential entrance and cycle stores bringing activation to the street.

The workspace unit has been removed to provide life safety plant to EC06 in order to meet the requirements of the BSA. The Building Safety Act 2022 introduced new roles and legal duties for people and organisations who are responsible for managing building safety risks in high-rise residential buildings (HRBs). The life safety plant proposed for EC06 is in addition to the EC05 life safety plant.

A cycle store has been added to provide direct access from Warwick Crescent as requested by RBKC in their consultation feedback.

6A.1 EC06

Amended Warwick

The residential entrance remains the key focus on the facade at street level with its tall arched porch activating the street.

One of the workspace units has been changed to life safety plant while the other accommodates a cycle store. Louvred openings now replace the glazed workspace openings.

6A.1 EC06

Amended Warwick Walk residential entrance (+12.5m AOD)

The secondary EC06 entrance at the Table Park Level has been updated to suit the new core arrangement. It remains located adjacent to the play space and planting within Warwick Walk.

The entrance continues to provide direct access to the Table, core and cycle store access. Adjustment to fenestration in this area to suit updated layouts.

Amended The Table Park Level (+12.5m AOD) general arrangement plan

The principles of an active park edge animated by a nursery / crèche, leading to a more residential character facing Warwick Walk remain unchanged.

Relocation of cycle stores has increased the active frontage of the nursery / crèche to Warwick Walk which also contains the reconfigured residential entrance, fire brigade access and second stair means of escape route.

A refuse store for the nursery is provided at Table Park level which removes an internal staircase and lift from the building. This will be managed by the estate management team

6A.1 EC06

Amended Outlook and privacy

The principles to enhance the outlook and maximise views out of each home have been maintained.

The distance between EC05 and EC06 has been reduced slightly due to adjustments in the footprint of EC06. There remains no direct overlooking between rooms in adjacent buildings. At upper levels where the building steps back, distances increase.

6A.1 EC06

Amended Typical Building Core

The building core design has been updated to meet the latest fire guidance set out in BS9991:2024.

Two evacuation lobbies provided with access to one stair and one evacuation lift each.

One passive ventilation shaft to each evacuation lobby.

Mechanical extract shafts to each of the common corridors paired with passive air intake shafts.

Third lift is now provided.

Stair goings have increased to 300mm.

6A.1 EC06

Amended Typical upper level general arrangement plan

(levels 07 - 19)

The upper typical floor for EC06 provides six homes served by a core with two stairs and three lifts. All homes meet or exceed minimum NDSS area requirements and offer generous habitable spaces.

The footprint of the building has grown slightly to the south east to accommodate the updated core design.

All units have been replanned and the floor plates continue to provide 100% dual aspect homes, have generously proportioned balconies providing external amenity. This has been due to the increasing the footprint of the core to align with BS9991:2024 guidance.

Amended Play strategy

Child Yield has been recalculated for the detailed plots using the updated unit mix and coordinated with the wider masterplan to ensure an allowance of 10m2 of playable space for every child within a reasonable walking distance of their home in accordance with the Mayor for London’s SPG.

Play space for EC05 and EC06 is provided as follows:

• Warwick Lane provides 160m2 doorstep play for 0-4 year olds as part of EC06 play provision. This consists of a mixture of equipped play features and informal play such as stepping stone trails.

• Whilst not counted towards play provision, residents courtyards to EC05 are designed to be inherently playful with stepping stone paths and edible planting allowing opportunities for children and young people to enjoy the spaces.

• In accordance with the masterplan play strategy, the remaining EC05 and EC06 doorstep play and all older age group play is provided within easy walking distance of the plots within the Table play zone.

• The plan opposite illustrates the play strategy within the wider context, showing allocation of play spaces for detailed plots within the wider masterplan.

• GLA population yield calculators are provided overleaf to demonstrate plot play requirements in response to comments received from RBKC.

Amended Soft landscaping

Soft landscaping has been reviewed in response to comments received from RBKC in order to prioritise climate resilient and native species.

Planting palettes have been further developed to increase the number of native species. It should be noted that future climate resilience, suitability for growing environment (amenity courtyards above slab) and maintenance are also key considerations in choice of plant species to ensure long term success. A mix of natives and non-native species is felt to be appropriate in this context in order to provide the desired long term resilience.

Species palettes are indicative and it is anticipated that detailed planting plans and schedules will be submitted for discharge of conditions at the detailed design stage with further opportunities to review the % of native / non-native species.

Cycle parking for Plot EC06 has been split in two stores:

One at ground floor, accessed off Warwick Crescent.

The second at first floor, accessed directly from the public realm between buildings. Access from the street is level, and there are internal step-free routes from the cycle stores to all dwellings via the main passenger lifts.

7A.2 EC05/EC06

Amended access provisions

Buildings EC05/EC06 continue to be designed taking into account the relevant planning policy, following the guidance of Approved Document M, and has considered the design guidance stated in relevant British Standards and other current good practice guidance about meeting the needs of disabled people.

Key access provisions remain as the July 2024 submission

• Entrances - Level and convenient approach to all entrances.

• Communal circulation - Corridors will be min. 1500mm wide allowing sufficient space for wheelchair users to manoeuvre and to pass in opposite directions.

• Lifts - all dwellings will have access to three passenger lifts that serve all floors.

• Residential amenities - All amenities will be accessible and designed in consideration of the needs of disabled people.

• Accessible housing - 10% of the dwellings will meet Building Regulations requirement M4(3) ‘wheelchair user dwellings’; and 90% will meet M4(2) ‘accessible and adaptable dwellings’.

• Emergency egress - an evacuation lift and one combined evacuation lift and firefighting lift serving all floors that will provide a safe and dignified means of escape for all residents.

Alternate delivery and servicing scenario

The updated proposals have been developed to ensure that EC05 can continue to be serviced at B1, should an alternative servicing approach be implemented in which the loop road becomes a two-way route.

In this scenario, a turning head located to the northeast of EC07 would provide access to EC05.

Pedestrian access to EC07 could then be provided through EC05.

Should an alternative servicing approach be implemented, this will be addressed in the Reserved Matters Application for EC07.

Emergency generators

Regarding prioritising the use of a secondary primary electricity substation to reduce the development’s reliance on combustion powered generators, our investigations conclude that there is no opportunity to secure a diverse secondary service in the first phase for the following reasons:

• Provision of a second supply for life safety reasons does not meet UKPN policy, the policies of alternative suppliers or British Standards.

• Distance between any source of secondary power and the Earls Court development is prohibitive.

• Any separate power supply to site would likely require significant network adjustments off site

• The distance to any nearest independent substation would be economically prohibitive. The approach to sourcing secondary power supplies will be reviewed continually throughout the masterplan development, including the potential introduction of a new primary substation in Development Zone Y adjacent to the A4 Cromwell Road. Any provision of a secondary power for life safety purposes derived from a future substation in Development Zone Y would need to comply with the guidance outlined above and would be subject to challenge from UKPN or other providers.

ECDC are investigating alternatives to the generators and will continue to do so.

Generator emissions

EC05 and EC06 will each have a life safety generator. The EC05 generator will be located in the basement and the EC06 will be located on the ground floor. They are both fuelled by hydrogenated vegetable oil (HVO).

Our understanding is that Euro Class 6 generator engines are exempt from air quality emission limits.

The generators will typically be tested monthly at 30% load for up to 30 minutes and annually with a longer running time of up to 4 hours to allow it to get to temperature, ideally with a full load bank test. This would equate to a run time of up to 10 hours per year per generator.

Hydrogenated vegetable oil (HVO) fuelled standby generators are proposed for the following reasons:

• Proven, accepted and reliable technology in life safety systems

• Low carbon fuel source

• No major regulatory or compliance issues (including with high-risk buildings)

• Generators are provided on a plot-by-plot basis for resilience

• Minimal run time required for routine testing (approximately 30 minutes per month), much less than 50 hours per year.

Energy strategy and waste heat energy recovery systems

The tenant operating the commercial kitchen ventilation system will be required to have a Commercial Kitchen Ventilation Waste Heat Energy Recovery System (CKVWHERS) using a run-around coil.

For all other responses on the energy strategy comments, please see the masterplan planning energy document and the Sustainability Statement Addenda for EC05 and EC06.

Ventilation strategy

Residential air quality

Filters will be specified on ventilation systems where the current and future predicted pollutant concentrations at air intakes (receptor locations) are within 5% of the annual mean WHO 2021 Air Quality Guidelines:

• Nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) - 10µg/m³,

• Particulate matter (PM10) - 15 µg/m³

• Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) - 5 µg/m³. The apartments will have mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR) with one unit per apartment. The MVHR units will have panel filters (G4). Depending on the air quality around the building and the height above the ground, they may also have bag filters (F7) and/ or carbon filters to meet the WHO Air Quality Targets.

9A.6 Ventilation statement

Mitigation will be applied at relevant sensitive receptor locations where annual mean WHO 2021 Air Quality Guideline levels would be likely to be exceeded, by providing appropriate filters. This will save energy compared with putting in higher specification filters in all apartment ventilation systems, which would increase the energy consumption of the ventilation systems.

Ventilation intake and exhaust locations

The air intakes and exhausts will be local for each apartment, through louvres or grilles in the apartment facades. The exhaust locations will be separated at least 2 metres away from the air ventilation intakes as far as practical, to minimise the potential for the recirculation of extract air through the supply air ventilation intake.

It would not be practical to take air in for all the apartments from the roof as it would require very large ducts through the cores of the buildings. It would probably require an additional floor at the top of each building just to accommodate the air handling plant. It would also considerably increase the energy consumption for ventilation. This would make it less likely to lead to a viable building, especially given the pressure already on cores for second stairs and additional smoke vents shafts and lifts.

Most of the apartment air intakes will be well above the roads. For EC05 and EC06, they only have a road on one side of each building; the other sides are adjacent to the Table Park and pedestrian areas.

It is not necessary to locate air intakes at roof level, as mitigation would be provided by the filtration (where necessary) to protect future site users from poor air quality. Lower floors may have additional filtration to meet the WHO targets if necessary.

Preventing summer overheating

The apartment ventilation systems have been designed to prevent summer overheating and minimise energy usage by using tempered cooling via apartment water source heat pumps connected to the ambient loop system, which can be used with the windows closed. Refer to the Sustainability Strategy documents for more information.

Indoor air quality

All cooking will be electric; there will not be any gas on the site.

Non-domestic kitchens particulate emission (PM2.5) control

There are two food and beverage (F&B) units on level 1 of EC05, adjacent to the Table Park.

The F&B units will have supply and extract ventilation for general purposes and separate kitchen ventilation, which will be part of the tenant fit-out. An area of louvre has been allowed for at high level within the F&B tenancies, for

intake and exhaust air to restaurant seating areas.

For the kitchen ventilation for one of the F&B units, there will be a separate air intake louvre from the courtyard at high level first floor and at this stage, we have proposed an extract discharge at roof level at the top of the EC05 tower. See Figures 3 and 4. This will be defined through detailed design stages.

A kitchen extract duct between the kitchen and the roof will be installed as part of the base build because it will run to the roof within the building core, where riser space has been provided. Space for a kitchen extract AHU has been provided on the EC05 roof for tenant fit-out.

The other F&B unit will have local ventilation for its kitchen ventilation, with a recirculating ecology air handling unit provided by the tenant. The recirculating ventilation unit will connect to high level louvres within the tenancy, adjacent to the Table Park, for air intake and exhaust.

Noise control

Noise emissions from ventilation systems associated with the F&B units will be controlled to meet the building services noise limits at nearby building facades (including EC05) proposed in the Noise and Vibration chapter of the sitewide Environmental Statement.

This will be achieved through in-duct attenuation measures and limiting airflow velocities both in duct and across external louvres.

9A.6 Ventilation statement

Odour control

The use of the F&B units and the type of cooking will depend on the tenancies. The filtration and odour control required will depend on the type of cooking. The filtration system for the commercial kitchen ventilation exhaust system will be as good or better than filters with an efficiency of ePM1 90% (F9) particulate filtration.

For a full commercial kitchen, this could include the following equipment.

Kitchen hoods with:

• grease filter

• integrated secondary mesh coalescer to remove further grease and

• UV-C ozone treatment to reduce smells or ductwork with –

• UV-O ozone treatment to reduce smells (See Figure 3)

Kitchen extract air handling unit (AHU) with:

• panel filter, typically G4

• bag filter, typically F7, efficiency > 75% for ePM1 particles and

• EPA filter E10 for fine filtration, better than F9 filtration, efficiency > 85% for ePM1 for particles between 0.3 and 2.5 microns or

• HEPA filter E11 for ultra-fine filtration, to remove > 95% of particles for 0.3 microns.

It may also have:

• carbon filter to reduce smells, ozone and NOx emissions and/ or

• electrostatic precipitator (ESP) to remove up to 98% or oil, grease and smoke particles. (See figure 3.)

For a restaurant or café without deep frying or char grille cooking, a recirculating ventilation system with an ecology unit would be provided for the kitchen ventilation. This would typically include kitchen hoods as above and an AHU with:

• panel filter

• bag filter

• EPA filter E10 for fine filtration.

Figure 6 indicates a typical kitchen ventilation schematic with filters and odour removal equipment.

Exhaust flues

There are just two exhaust flues, one for each generator in EC05 and EC06. Both flues will exhaust the generator flue emissions at the top of each tower, level with the tops of the parapets and away from ventilation air intakes and openable windows. The flue exhaust discharge velocity for each of the flues will be at least 18 m/s.

EC06 railway noise and vibration

Sandy Brown Ltd were instructed at the beginning of RIBA Stage 2 to provide acoustic consultancy services on the detailed design of Plots EC05 and EC06

The impact of railway noise and vibration has been assessed against criteria within the RBKC Noise SPD and national standards for residential development

Extensive onsite surveys and calculations have found that the lower levels of EC06 and units overlooking the West London Line (WLL) have the potential to be affected by noise from the WLL. Mitigation measures required such that the criteria can be met have been identified as follows:

• High acoustic performance i.e. double or triple glazed windows for units nearest to the WLL to control external noise break-in from passing trains (and other transportation sources) with windows closed

• Alternative overheating mitigation measures to opening windows which has been incorporated into the design in the form of tempered air cooling for compliance with Building Regulations Part O

• Provision of alternative external communal amenity areas to ensure units whose balconies have noise levels above the criteria can enjoy communal external amenity within the development

• Potential inclusion of elastomeric bearings within the building structure or alternative design measures to reduce re-radiated noise levels. There is a current allowance for bearings, but this is subject to further assessment to be undertaken during RIBA Stage 3.

The assessments are ongoing and will be continued through further RIBA stages, along with development of the mitigation measures to ensure that EC06 will meet RBKC Noise SPD and national standards for residential development
