Ferrari Experience, Abu Dhabi

The world's first Ferrari theme park and largest indoor park in the world, this project is one of the centrepieces of the YAS island development in Abu Dhabi.

The following Gyproc systems were specified and used in the project:

  • Using rigidised Gypframe 100S50 stud framing with two layers of 12.5mm Gyproc FireStop, we were able to provide a quick and easy solution that gave SEVERE duty performance whilst achieving the required 120 minutes fire rating at only 21 kg/m2.

 

Challenges

  • To provide 6m high, 120 minutes fire rated partitions that are curved and to a specific thickness of 150 mm.
  • Partitions had to be as lightweight as possible to reduce the imposed load due to the large spans of the floor slabs and to help compensate for the live loading during peak times.

Outcome

With this cost effective and high performance solution, the Gyproc Technical Team were able to provide both warranties and test reports for the 120 minutes fire rated partition, giving complete peace of mind to the client.
