Ultuna / Green Innovation Park
Thanks to its impressive size and the combination of round and straight shapes, the VHC will definitely catch the eye of every visitor to the area. The 53,000 square meter building houses animal hospitals for small and large animals as well as premises for research and education. A place where both people and animals can meet and enjoy themselves.
The entire building is permeated by a quest for interactivity and flexibility - all to give science good conditions to thrive and develop. The floor plan makes it easy to walk between the units, while glazed surfaces and vantage points make it easy to find your way around.
VHC was environmentally certified in 2015 according to Miljöbyggnad, new production 2.0.
The VHC building meets the requirements for Miljöbyggnad x. Miljöbyggnad is a certification system for creating environmentally sustainable buildings. It is based on Swedish building and authority regulations as well as Swedish construction practice. Environmental building is a certificate of important qualities of a building in terms of energy, indoor environment and materials and is used for newly produced and existing buildings regardless of size. In Environmental Construction, a building can achieve the bronze, silver or gold rating. Behind the certification stands the non-profit association Sweden Green Building Council (SGBC).
Being a tenant in a certified building means a responsibility in the use of the premises and the building to create the smallest possible environmental impact. In order for the property to be able to maintain the certification, it is important that you as a tenant know what applies. This house guide contains information about how the building works and tips on what you as a tenant can influence.
Entrances and lifts
In front of the main entrances, the surface is hardened and the slope is adapted for people with reduced mobility. Next to the doors there is a door fitted with an automatic door opener. There are a total of nine lifts in the building, divided into eight passenger lifts and one goods lift. All floors can be reached by wheelchair via the passenger lifts. There are several stairs in the building. Approved handrails are available in all houses.
RWC and rest room
Toilets adapted for the disabled are available on each floor.
SCARED - WARN - ALARM - EXTINGUISH
• save yourself and others around you, but don't take too many risks yourself
• warn others who may be in danger
• alert the Emergency Services by calling 112
• put out the fire if possible
Fires that cannot be extinguished with deployed hand fire extinguishers must be alerted via telephone 112. Limit the source of the fire by closing windows and doors.
The building is divided into a number of fire cells to prevent fire and smoke from spreading.
Each fire cell is delimited by fire-rated walls and doors. In principle, all floors, stairwells, elevators, operating spaces and waste rooms are their own fire cells. Doors in fire cell boundaries can be magnetically suspended in the open position for transport and closed manually with a push button marked "fire door closer". When an evacuation alarm is triggered, the doors close automatically within the alarmed area.
Doors in fire compartment boundaries must absolutely not be blocked by wedges or the like!
Escape routes / Assembly point
See evacuation plans in corridors.
The stairwells form independent escape routes. Two emergency exits can be reached from each workplace. The escape routes, which are marked with green luminous escape signs, must never be blocked. The green signs are always lit and have a battery backup to illuminate even in the event of a power cut.
If the fire alarm is triggered, all personnel must leave the building, close all doors behind them and gather at the assembly point (See the respective evacuation plan). The staff reports there to the evacuation recipient and leaves their name and group affiliation or equivalent. No one may depart from the assembly point until this is done.
VHC was environmentally certified in 2015 according to Miljöbyggnad, new production 2.0, with an overall rating of silver at building level.
