Fire-resistive or noncombustible construction does not eliminate the need for equipment to protect the contents of the museum from fire. This equipment should provide for both detection and extinguishment. While these are separate functions, they may and often should be consolidated into one continuous fire protection system which detects a fire, sounds the alarm, and sets off automatic extinguishing devices.
