Service Details

Lighting Design Using Dialux EVO

Light is an integral part of architecture whose internal and external structure, building elements and materials place great demands on light. Some of these demands can be met by daylight, others can only be fulfilled with artificial light. When artificial lighting is planned, the user’s needs must be given thorough consideration, since we should all feel comfortable in our surroundings and enjoy and experience them. Light stimulates us and makes a significant contribution to our health.

We are fascinated by light. Good lighting means not only fulfilling standards. First and foremost man and his wishes and requirements should be the focus of attention. This is what characterizes our work which covers all aspects of architecture. Indoors and outdoors – from residential and office lighting to prestige outdoor lighting in public spaces. The use of light can be very versatile and we help you to plan perfect light to suit your needs. Contact us. We will plan for you and offer you our expert advice and support.

Cable Calculation Using Amtech Pro Design

Our practise uses Amtech Pro Design for full electrical design and calculations to BS7671 standards. We can issue full reports, distribution board schedules and compliance checks to help ensure all cables, breakers and distribution boards are selected and sized accurately.

Fire Alarm Design

With fire detector technology constantly evolving, standards also change in order to include these technologies and to drive innovation within the industry. The recent update to BS5839-1 has, for example, for the first time, placed a focus on how multi-sensors should be tested. Shire group are constantly at the forefront ensuring we are up to date with regulation changes as well as ensuring all designs are carried out in compliance with building regulations.

Door Entry Design

Full door entry design services and specification available to suit all residential, commercial and industrial applications.

Security Design

Full security design services and specification available to suit all residential, commercial and industrial applications.

Utility Connections Planning Service

We can carry out all utility connection application forms for electricity, water, gas and telecoms.

We carry out load assessments on both new and existing buildings and can calculate required loadings a building requires based on the occupancy, type and use of the building.

We apply enough diversity to reduce demand and as a result this generally gives a capital saving on end quotations as the required load is generally lower than first anticipated.

Lightning Protection Design

Lightning flashes to, or nearby, structures are hazardous to people, to the structures themselves, their contents and installations. The possible types of damage are injury to living beings due to step and touch voltage; physical damage (fire, explosion, mechanical destruction, chemical and radiological release) due to lightning current effects and failure of internal systems due to lightning electromagnetic impulse (LEMP). This is why the application of lightning protection measures can be essential. The need for protection, the economic benefits of selecting and installing adequate protection measures should be determined in terms of risk management.

However, the decision to provide lightning protection can be taken regardless of the outcome of risk assessment, where there is a desire that there be no avoidable risk; or where protection against lightning is required by the authority having jurisdiction.

Shire Group can carry out the risk assessment of your building new or existing and recommend the correct system to put in place to protect both the building and occupants.

Specification Design

Full M&E specification services can be provided to ensure your projects M&E equipment is installed to building regulations standards.

Construction Supervision

Full construction supervision can be provided to ensure contractors install to design drawings, to regulations and to a good quality.
