As Asia's premier cruise hub, Guangzhou Nansha International Cruise Home Port (opened 2019) integrates transportation, tourism, and commerce. It is China's first cruise terminal seamlessly connected to Metro Line 4 via a 500m underground passage and features cutting-edge eco-technologies like the nation's highest-capacity shore power system. The total integrated complex spans 760,000 m², incorporating themed hotels and cultural facilities. Two deep-water berths for 100,000 GT and 225,000 GT mega-ships, capable of docking the world's largest cruises. Annual throughput 750,000 passengers, expandable to 1.5 million after Phase II completion. Positioned at the geometric center of the Greater Bay Area, Nansha Cruise Home Port redefines maritime travel with its triple strengths while sailing to Japan's Okinawa (visa-free), Vietnam, and Hong Kong .
Fire-rated doors in Guangzhou Nansha International Cruise Home Port technical overview
① Application Areas & Positioning
Fire-rated doors are strategically deployed in critical zones of the Nansha Cruise Terminal (CICO Blue Bay) to compartmentalize fire hazards and ensure safe evacuation:
Terminal Core Zones:
Check-in Halls & Boarding Gates: High-traffic areas where fire doors separate passenger flows from mechanical/electrical rooms.
Corridor Links: Between retail spaces (e.g., duty-free shops), dining areas, and emergency exits.
Vertical Evacuation Paths:
Stairwells and pressurized escape routes connecting to refuge floors.
② Technical Compartments
HVAC rooms, electrical vaults, and baggage handling zones, secured with Class-A fire-rated doors (60–120 min integrity).
Ancillary Structures
Luxury residences, apartments, and commercial towers within the integrated complex.
③ Core Functions
Fire/Smoke Compartmentalization: Confine flames and toxic gases within the origin zone (60–120 min rating per GB 50016-2014).
Structural Integrity Assurance: Maintain load-bearing capacity of escape routes during fire events.
Egress Protection: Provide smoke-free pathways to lifeboats and assembly stations.
Corrosion Resistance: Withstand saline coastal environments (Nansha's high-humidity climate).
System Integration: Interface with central BMS for automated lockdown upon fire detection.
④ Product Specifications & Features
Material & Structural Design
Core Construction:
Galvanized steel frames (1.2–1.5mm thickness) with rock wool/mineral wool insulation.
Glazed variants: Ceramic-fired fire-resistant glass (e.g., 6mm fire glass + 12A air gap + 6mm tempered glass) with aluminum decorative strips.
⑤ Intelligent Components
Auto-Closing Mechanisms:
Electromagnetic hold-open devices linked to fire alarms; close within ≤30 sec post-alert.
Sealing Systems:
Triple-lip intumescent gaskets (expand at 200°C+) and smoke seals (gap tolerance ≤3mm).
Coastal Durability:
Powder-coated or stainless-steel finishes (single-side for kitchens, double-side for high-moisture zones).
⑥ Marine-Grade Integration
Waterproofing Measures:
Silicone-jointed thresholds and drainage channels to prevent seawater ingress.
Multi-Wall Mounting:
Single-Layer Walls: Self-tapping screws into steel tracks.
Composite Walls (e.g., steel + rock wool): Through-bolted with corrosion-resistant fasteners.
⑦ Certifications & Performance
Compliant with GB 12955-2008 (Class A ≥60 min) and ISO 17941:2015 (marine hydraulic hinges).
Tested for wind resistance (Grade 9), air-tightness (Grade 8), water-tightness (Grade 3), and thermal insulation (Grade 4).
