Shanghai Harbour International Passenger Terminal

The Shanghai Harbour International forms the centre piece of the redevelopment of the Hongkou District of Shanghai.

The Passenger Terminal has been designed to airport standards, enabling it to accommodate large passenger flows. The building itself a glass hemisphere in the shape of an irregular ellipse is destined to become a new architectural landmark in the city. Comprising an 880 m long wharf that is able to berth three international passenger liners of 70,000-80,000 tonnes at a time, its main function is the transfer of passengers to and from the ships, but it also includes offices, a restaurant, hotel and shopping centre, as well as other sightseeing facilities.

The fire system comprises 4,600 devices, including a combination of Apollo's XP95 analogue addressable and Series 60 conventional fire detectors and compatible interfaces. The entire system will be controlled by 2 eight-loop control panels and will also feature a graphics display.
