C) CHARGING STATIONS

D) SERVICING PROVISION

With constantly increasing numbers of electri- cal / hybrid cars followed by EU and PL legis- lation changes, provision of charging points / stations seems to be required for office build- ings aiming to achieve quality class A rating. There is currently no legal obligation to pro- vide charging points within any development however this will undoubtedly change in the near future. Provision of electrical fitting to power the elec- tric car charging station is much cheaper at the design and construction stage than after

its completion. Therefore, it is worth antici- pating the appropriate power reserve at the connection point and in the main switchboard in advance and prepare the duct infrastruc- ture so that subsequent changes do not entail unnecessarily excessive costs for the facility manager. It is a good practice to provide charging fa- cilities for 10% of all parking bays and power reserve for additional 40%.

Access for commercial vehicles, public service vehicles, fire tender vehicle, refuse collection vehicles, delivery vans, taxi drop-off, kiss & fly points should be provided on-site or in the car park. When bigger vehicles enter the car park:

• The height should be no lower than 2.7m clear (depends of height of service vehicles access- ing car park level) • Deck above underground levels / on-site fire route should be design to carry fire tender vehicle loading 100kN / axle (3 axles). Fire tender vehicle requires 4.2m of clear height for passing through the covered passage / under the building.
