Daiwa Capital Markets Europe, City of London
The project
A subsidiary of one of Japan’s largest brokerage and financial services groups, Daiwa Capital Markets Europe has its headquarters in the City of London. Daiwa called on DCI to replace its extensive boiler system which supplies services for the 600 staff working on the seven floors of the 82,000sq. ft. building.
The challenge
Working in this densely built-up area of London always has many logistic considerations and, as is common, the boiler room was located in the basement resulting in restricted access for removal and installation. All redundant plant, materials and seven stories of twin flue services had to be removed and disposed of prior to installation of new boilers and pipework for gas, water and flues.
The solution
DCI started with a full site survey, validating the existing installation and recording all measurements such as flow rates and physical dimensions before creating comprehensive working drawings for the boiler and flue replacement and pipework design.
