Enabling and Accelerating the Construction of Data Centres

Description

This CPD will allow delegates to discover how to enable and accelerate the construction of data centres during the Day 1 and Day 2 programme, using innovative methods to ensure weather and dust don’t stop programme progress and a temporary hot aisle containment testing for consistent and accurate results which leave no damage to finishes.

It will look at traditional screening methods versus innovative systems, and understand the challenges faced when planning to envelope a building to ensure a tight weather seal, or to screen off clean areas for dust control during phased client handovers. It also covers how innovative screening solutions and systems can also be used from Day 2 onwards, e.g. to extend the data hall.

We will discuss the ideal attributes of a screen system, the benefits of an engineered fabric screen, the legislation and certifications that may be required and time/cost savings on projects. 

By the end of this CPD, delegates ought to: 

1. Have an understanding of the pros and cons of traditional versus innovative screening systems. 
2. Know the challenges faced in externally screening data centre envelopes for weathering or for internal dust control phase separation.
3. Know the ideal screening systems to use on data centre construction projects. 
4. Have an overview of legislation and certifications that may be required. 
5. Understand the benefits of using an engineered tensioned fabric screen and how it can accelerate the build program.
