Key Data Set Information
Reference year 2026
Name
AlphaRiser® Riser Management System
Technical purpose of product or process AlphaRiser is a unique Riser Floor system that is integrated with the structural floor slab to protect the riser void and MEP services of services to pass through. The system is made from a steel frame with GRP composite joists and grating to reduce weight and simplify cutting for MEP penetrations, which eliminates the need for hot works permits. Designed to accommodate either cast-in or retro-fit applications, AlphaRiser can be installed in conjunction with multiple methods of construction, from steel frame, cast concrete floors, pre-cast slabs etc. A significant benefit is the ease of adjustment in the joist positions to accommodate the positioning of MEP services. This means that risers can be procured and installed ahead of final MEP design being set, saving time and money later in the project. AlphaRiser FR is a unique solution which creates effective horizontal fire-stopping and has been tested for effectiveness by a third party accredited test house to BS EN1366 pt 3.

1This impact category deals mainly with the eventual impact of low dose ionizing radiation on human health of the nuclear fuel cycle. It does not consider effects due to possible nuclear accidents, occupational exposure nor due to radioactive waste disposal in underground facilities. Potential ionizing radiation from the soil, from radon and from some construction materials is also not measured by this indicator.
2The results of this environmental impact indicator shall be used with care as the uncertainties on these results are high or as there is limited experiences with the indicator.
