The sad wildfires in spain made me wonder this, especially as climate change means there’ll be more fires. I know groups like disabled people and their families are slower to get out, causing risk. But is it more that the fire is too fast, or that some people just don’t leave fast enough?
Just wondering what could be done to reduce deaths.
The code is concrete.
My building has a plan-b for fire that is “shelter in-place in the main bathroom and block the door sweep.”
Yeah, I think that’s well established but what was interesting was the way concrete walls funneled hot air certain ways but not others. But it’s been a while since I heard the interview, the main discussion was on the heat of a conflagration vs a normal fire.
