With its dramatic tornado design, the Tornado Tower in Doha is a vivid symbol of Qatar's dynamic economy. Thanks to the integration of all maintenance groups from fire protection to lighting control in Total Building Solutions, the Tornado Tower sets a precedent for intelligent buildings of the future.
In an increasingly uncertain world with dwindling resources, both comprehensive safety and security and outstanding energy efficiency are required. The integration of all maintenance groups into Total Building Solutions has contributed to making the Tornado Tower a modern beacon of maximum safety and security, energy efficiency, and flexibility that offers the highest possible level of convenience. Siemens designed the complete solution for power distribution, building automation, fire protection, security systems, and lighting control exclusively for the building, mostly using products from its own portfolio.
The building management system Desigo Insight allows all maintenance groups to be controlled and monitored flexibly. Permanent monitoring and reporting increase convenience, reduce energy consumption and operating costs, conserve resources, and minimize CO2 emissions. The access control systems and smart alarm systems integrated into the building management system also provide maximum security. Thanks to the integration of maintenance groups in Total Building Solutions, dangerous situations are detected faster, and all necessary measures can be implemented rapidly.
