Case Study: Visual Identification from Brady make 30 year-Old Luxury Condos Building a Model of Safety and Efficiency.
From Brady Corporation
 

 

The Turnberry Isle South Condo Association, Inc. represents a 300-unit, 32-story building of luxury condominiums in Aventura, Florida, just outside of Miami. John Belardo, Chief Engineer for the property, has worked closely with Brady to create a comprehensive program of visual identification on electrical panels throughout the 30 year-old building, providing engineers, maintenance staff, and cleaning crews with critical safety information at the point of need.

By labeling all electrical panels as well as plumbing, equipment tags, and more, the program has helped to increase the efficiency of building maintenance, ensure resident safety, and make the building a model of operational safety for engineers managing similar properties.

Older buildings have different operational and safety challenges compared to new buildings - making clear, consistent electrical and other safety labeling even more important. Safety standards have changed since electrical panels were installed, so old labels may not include vital information. Older panel labels may have faded or peeled, or never even existed. Because Belardo coordinates the work of many internal staff and external contractors on a daily basis, he needed a system that would be clear, concise, and easy to maintain.
