Introduction

Thirty High, formally Portland House is part of the wider Cardinal Place development located on the east side of Bressenden Place in SW1. It is surrounded by large scale office buildings and being the tallest structure in the immediate vicinity with impressive views of London, acts as a focal point for the area.

Other than Bressenden Place the building is completely surrounded by fully pedestrianised streets with the bottom two floors facing Cardinal Walk dedicated to the retail offering of the development.

Portland House was originally completed in 1962, refurbished in the early 2000s and is undergoing a complete refurbishment that sees the building façade refreshed with new windows, a cleaned concrete facade along with the installation of all new mechanical plant, equipment and lifts. A new pavilion extension, set to the building’s western side, has been formed to provide a new double height reception with entrances at each end.

At 105m tall, Thirty High acts as a focal point within Victoria providing unrivalled panoramic views of London’s skyline.

Office accommodation is over 25 floors, with an amenity rich offering, the Crown on levels 29 and 30 provides flexible event spaces, a restaurant, bar with a terrace and lounge for all office occupiers during the working day and open to the public outside of office hours and at the weekends to enjoy the 360° views over London. A Wellness offering is available at basement and L1. Browns Restaurant will also add to the Cardinal Estate retail mix.

Practical Completion for Thirty High is targeted for Q4 2025 (subject to the usual extensions).

This Customer Handbook will be refined and further developed as the building nears completion.

No fuel or gas cylinders are to be stored within the building.

NO SMOKING POLICY

All parts of Thirty High and Cardinal Estate have been designated as ‘No Smoking’ areas. Occupiers should not permit their staff to smoke immediately outside the entrances or the Estate. The reception staff have instructions to ask anyone smoking immediately outside to move away.

Fire procedures

If you discover a fire:

Alert others by shouting FIRE and immediately operate the nearest call point by pressing the perspex glass

Alert security immediately (Security are responsible for notifying the Fire Service)

Only attempt to extinguish the fire, using the provided appliances, if you are competent and trained to do so and it is safe (please refer to your company policy on fighting fires) DO NOT TAKE PERSONAL RISKS

On hearing the fire alarm:

Leave the building immediately, using the nearest, safe exit.

USE THE NEAREST AVAILABLE FIRE EXIT

— DO NOT USE THE LIFTS

DO NOT STOP TO COLLECT PERSONAL BELONGINGS

DO NOT RETURN TO YOUR PLACE OF WORK

Please note we operate on a dispersal policy, please report to your fire marshal. Your fire marshal will confirm with you when it is safe to return to the building

DO NOT RE-ENTER

THE BUILDING UNTIL INSTRUCTED TO DO SO

Note:

If there is time and it is safe to do so: Close all doors on your way out Switch off all electrical equipment The building operates on a dispersal policy only.

So that you are safe from any potential danger, and rather than create a large gathering close to the office, it is now recommended that people disperse until the threat has passed. It is expected of each customer’s Head Fire Marshal to report their floor(s) all clear to the Incident Control Officer (ICO) and wait at the dispersal point until the all clear is given. It will then be the responsibility of the company (via whatever multi-address system they use) to inform their staff that they can return to the building. In some instances, a customer may choose for their staff not to disperse, in which

case a designated muster point is used. At least one Fire Marshal should wait with the ICO to pass on the all clear message.

Fire Alarm Testing

Weekly audibility tests will be carried out during operational hours; the day and time will be agreed prior to practical completion of the building.

It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that the statutory testing of occupier-installed fire alarm systems within their demise is carried out in line with current legislation and relevant British Standards. Prior to testing of any fire alarm, please liaise with the workplace management team to ensure correct procedures are in place for isolating the system.

Facilities for Persons with Limited Mobility

The building and estate have been designed to ensure that the access requirements for persons with limited mobility are considered. All occupiers are asked to advise the Workplace Management and Security Team of the number of employees with limited access and Personal Emergency Evacuation Plans (PEEPs) are to be supplied to the security control room for use in emergencies. We ask you to keep the operations team informed of any access problems that they encounter so the appropriate remedial measures can be considered.

Emergency procedure

Thirty High follows a phased evacuation regime. On the office levels the system will operate what is known as a ‘double knock’ operation, whereby activation of a single detector will send an alert to the fire alarm panel, prompting the security team to investigate. There is an investigation period. A ‘double knock’ will be due to:

Two smoke detectors activating; or

A single heat detector activating; or

A single sprinkler head activating; or

A manual call point being activated; or

The investigation period timing out without the alarm being cancelled; or

The alarm being manually confirmed by the Seek & Search Security Officer during the investigation period.

On activation of an alarm on any one level, that level will be put into alarm with the rest of the building put into alert, i.e. a signal will sound, and an automated voice announcement will instruct staff to stand by, alerting customers to the presence of a fire on another floor but directing them not to evacuate until told to do so.

The first phase will be initiated automatically, then the reminder of the phased evacuation procedure will be managed. The sequence will be:

Floor of origin evacuated and disabled occupants at any floor level requiring use of an evacuation lift, The next two floor levels above the fire floor will be evacuated, The remaining floors in groups of two working up the building will be evacuated,

Floors in groups of two below the floor of fire origin working downwards.

In the event of a fire in the basement, a zoned evacuation strategy will be adopted.

Please note: those occupying more than one floor with an internal staircase are managed as one single floor.

The ground floor lobby area will also be evacuated in the first phase. in the event of a fire in the basement, a zoned evacuation strategy will be adopted. Thirty High basement (including the event space) will form one zone, while the cycle store / changing facilities in the existing car park of the adjacent building will form a separate zone.

Occupants in the fire evacuation zone will be evacuated whilst areas not affected by the fire will continue to operate and would only be put into evacuation should this be deemed necessary. When there is a fire in either plant rooms or event space at basement, the whole basement will be evacuated.

Occupiers are responsible for the evacuation of staff and visitors within their demise. This includes mobilityimpaired persons. Fire Marshalls are to report to the Security Incident Control Officer at the designated muster point to confirm that their floor is clear.

In the case of an emergency the lifts will be grounded, except for fire lifts, which will be under the control of the Fire Service.

Sustainability at Thirty High

The following sustainable features have been incorporated into the design of Thirty High:

Wellbeing

Thirty High embeds features of the WELL Building Standard V2 and will achieve a Platinum Core rating. These features include healthy materials selection, physical activity support through high-quality facilities and natural elements throughout the building to support health and wellbeing. Key features include:

— The water quality will be tested regularly against WELL’s stringent baseline to ensure exceptional water quality is provided to building users

— Low Volatile Organic Compounds emission finishes are provided to ensure excellent air quality in communal areas

— Fresh air delivery rates in the building are increased over UK industry best practice by more than 15%

— Thermal comfort will be closely controlled and tested throughout the year to achieve the stringent WELL parameters

BREEAM

Thirty High has targeted BREEAM Refurb and Fit Out 2014 Outstanding. This has been achieved through focusing on energy performance, low carbon design, sustainable materials selection, and efficient use of natural resources.

Key features include:

— Lighting has been designed in line with industry standards to give great visual comfort

— Low water usage fixtures and fittings have been installed to achieve a water saving of 40% compared to a typical building

Benefits to the building include:

— Rainwater harvesting is provided to reduce demand on potable water, this will save approximately one thousand full bathtubs (or 500,000 full kettles) of water over the course of a year

— 99% of Waste was diverted from landfill in construction

— 100% of timber installed within the building will be sourced from Sustainably managed forests, as certified by the Forrest Stewardship Council (FSC) scheme

Carbon

We have worked to actively reduce the embodied carbon emissions used in the construction of Thirty High. The specification promotes local, low-carbon materials and ultimately the emissions will be offset so that our customers benefit from a low-carbon building. The key feature of the project was to retain as much of the original building as possible while balancing the need for improved energy performance. This has meant installing new windows throughout to reduce heat loss but subtle interventions to the structure and internal finishes.

Benefits to the building include:

— Retaining a large proportion of the façade and building structure has saved over 40% in terms of the total up-front carbon compared to typical new building, the emissions avoided are the equivalent to driving around the circumference of the Earth in a petrol car 760 times.

— New Concrete used in the building has a high proportion of low carbon cement replacement (recycled industrial by-product) as and a proportion of the reinforcement steel bars contain over 97% recycled content

Our sustainability strategy

Energy

Thirty High will be a net zero carbon building as per UKGBC framework definition. Meaning the embodied carbon of the building has been considerably reduced compared to a regular build, and the operational energy demand has been minimised.

Our purpose Sustainable places Connecting communities Realising potential

Key features that benefit the tenant include:

— Reduced energy usage by implementing the Design for Performance (DfP) methodology within the landlord areas to target a National Australian Built Environment Rating System (NABERS) rating of 5 Stars. A NABERS rating is a market leading rating system which allows us to accurately measure and communicate the environmental performance and efficiency of the building.

Benefits to the building include:

— The heating and cooling will be provided by low carbon Air Source Heat pumps powered by electricity and will achieve an energy saving of 19.54%.
