Les Américains ont trouvé l'expression "fire resistive building", pour désigner un bâtiment construit entièrement en dur, c'est-à-dire en béton, en pierre et béton, ou en pierre, brique et béton. (...) Pour la traduire, on fera bien de dire: bâtiment de construction incombustible, ou encore bâtiment de construction ininflammable. 1, record 1, French, - b%C3%A2timent%20de%20construction%20incombustible

Construction et assurance (...) Suivant les dispositions du tarif des risques industriels, les bâtiments sont classés comme suit: construction ordinaire; construction incombustible ordinaire; construction incombustible de sécurité. Le vocable "incombustible" est pris au sens de limitation, au minimum des conséquences d'un feu. (...) Un bâtiment est dit de "construction ordinaire" lorsque, pour la construction des murs extérieurs et de la couverture, on a utilisé dans des proportions variables les matériaux sans se préoccuper des autres éléments de la construction, c'est-à-dire charpentes, planchers, communications verticales, etc. 2, record 1, French, - b%C3%A2timent%20de%20construction%20incombustible
