STAIRCASE PRESSURISATION CALCULATION Design Requirement a. Outward air flow velocity from staircase of not less than 1 m/s across 2 doors leading from any 2 successive storey and also that at the ground floor when all the 3 doors are fully opened b. The pressure differential between the staircase and the office area is within the range form 25 Pa to 50 Pa (about 2.5mm to 5 mm WG). c. The force required to open any door at the door handle shall not exceed 110N d. The condition in above a) and b) will be restored within 15 seconds after each disturbance by the operation of the door Design Calculation 1) Estimation of air volume flowing past door when 3 doors are opened a) Size of door is 0.00 m(H) x 0.00 m (W) b) Area of door is 0.00 m2 ( 1.00 -leaf door) c) Based on 1m/s, airflow through door when door is opened: = 0 m2 x 1 m/s x 60 = 0 cmh per door

2) Estimation of air leakage through doors when doors are closed a) Design criteria based on BS 5588:Part 4:1978 b) Leakage Are Calculation: Based on 50 Pa pressure difference and interpolate of data from Table 3. From Table 3
Type of door Case A
Single-leaf in rebated frame opening into a presurisation space
Case B
Single-leaf in rebated frame opening outwards from a presurisation space
Case C Selection:
Double leaf with or without centre rebate Case B
I) From Case B, the leakage area per crack length = The door used has a crack length of c) Calculation of air leaks through doors: Refer to Eqn 2 of sub-section 5.3.1.1 Qe = 0.827 where, Qe = Ae = Pe =
